Jim, Nafi is right. The jumpers indicate your scsi id's and if termination is enabled. When you replace it with the 3gb drive easiest way to do it is using the link Nafi placed, figure out which scsi id your drive is, and if termination is enabled, then replicate the settings on the new 3gb drive.
Also you'll need to run HD toolkit or HD Setup or HCsetup ..depending on your use if you want MacOS or A/UX to recognise it's partitions. If your planning to run linux or netbsd on it, you can skip this step in favour of the fdisk/disk prep included there. --- Naftali Shani <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Jim, this is OLD, ca. 1991 - see > http://www.seagate.com/support/disc/specs/scsi/st41600n.html > > Should be replaceable with a standard 50-pin SCSI drive.
