This SCSI cable uses a very fine pitch connector and the one on my 4/330 seems to have intermittent connection problems. For example the position of the cable causes/eliminates boot problems. At the moment, the intermittent cable seems to have trashed the / disk partition beyond fsck's ability to recover so the problem is potentially quite serious. John C.
