from a brief skim of the info, it looks like they are not the same. ________________________________ From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, March 08, 2010 9:49 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: SCSI cable @#*&!!! Greetings! Our backup system is out again - failed Adaptec (ancient!) card. We planned to connect our library to a different server and got a bad surprise... Of course, no two sets of devices can ever use the same cable, so no backups tonight. I am trying to order a new cable. I believe the connecters, both ends, are "VHDCI". Looking through the catalog, I see some VHDCI connectors listed (but always with, so far, an HD68 at the other end). I also see some described by their manufacturer as "Micro D", some as "Micro DB68", and some as "68 pin Micro Centronics". It would seem they are all the same thing as "VHDC1", but I can't afford the down-time of having yet another wrong cable delivered (and needing to try again). Are all those assorted "Micro" names the same as "VHDCI"? Thanks! -- Richard D. McClary Systems Administrator, Information Technology Group ASPCA(r) 1717 S.
