- If your A3000 doesn't have it, then you need a longer SCSI
- ribbon cable with two drive connectors. Also, SOME A3000's had
- only 1 HD power connector. Most have 2, mine had one. You can
- get a power connector 'Y' for this. Next you remove the termination
- resistors from the drive in the MIDDLE of the SCSI cable.

- :configure one as master and the other slave,

- Master Slave is not used for SCSI :)

- :how to choose the max transfer rate and so on..

- HDToolBox can ASK most drives for this information.
