I just wanted to point out, that if the SCSI interface is up to full specs that
,PROVIDED you use a shielded cable, you can do MUCH more than 18". in fact
the SCSI specs say you can use up to a 40 foot cable. Of course, the shorter
the cable the better. But I have used cables up to about 35 or so without any
trouble. In fact, I am using a 6 foot cable off of a Supra interface right
now, keep in mind this is off of an Amiga. However, I see no reason why the
same would not work on the Supra interface for the Atari.
