Hi Bruce, Here's what Pinnacle has to say: http://www.pinnaclemicro.com/faq/mac1.htm or "use SCSI ID #2". But on this drive it says "Internal active terminator (short on)" on the back panel; also Test, Parity, ID(Binary) - 2, 1, 0: all of these have an engraved line leading to a pair of pins that can be jumpered - but how? (Previous owner used the device on a Sun machine (help!)). Thx George
