Hi folks, I should know this by now. . . but how does a 68 pin PCI card (is that the "controller"?) as in David's previous post become the equivalent of a 50 pin SCSI without having to use the 68 to 50 pin adaptor to physically install the Drive? Does the card have an attached harness? I mean, as David said: "Yes, it could replace your hard disk, but you would either need a 68 to 50 pin adaptor, or a 68 pin scsi card. I would recommend the card, as you will get much better performance from the drive. " Thanks, Terry -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
