Sorry, should have made it a bit clearer. I have: Alpha (with QLogicISP (Wide SCSI)) -> Wide to narrow adapter -> disc 1 -> ... -> disc 4 -> tape drive Not sure about the high byte termination - I've noticed that I can set the Qlogic adapter to provide high byte termination though - would that do the same?
