    I'am currently trying to install new disks on the SCSI bus of
my hp 9000/400t workstation. I have already a hp660S box with 2
disks and a dat inside. The problem is the following : it seems
that the scsi bus ends inside the box, it is not possible to add
other peripherals after the box on the bus. More, the two scsi
plugs on the back are not symetricals, there is an entrance and an
exit, you cannot interchange. But it works perfectly when i put
the 660s box at the end on the bus. There is probably some strap
or switch to set or unset in or out the box, but i have no idea
and neither my hp hardware specialist. Anobody has an idea ?

    Thanks very much for answers.
