- I'm still debating whether to get a proper 3 connector ribbon to replace
- the current (stock) one I have now, or get an extension to clip onto the
- end so I can mount my new drive.

- Hmm, this brings up a question - can I just replace the current ribbon
- with one with 3 SCSI-II connectors? Since the stock controller is
- SCSI-I, I'm unclear. I don't know if the SCSI-I and SCSI-II connectors
- are interchangeable or not (no, I don't know much of anything) - yes/no?
