THANKS for the reply - I'm about at my wits end with this problem!!

Does this card have two SCSI connectors, one U2W (80mb/s) and one U160?

Good question - well, yes, it does have 2 68-pin internal connecters ( and 1 external which
will be used for my scanner, which is currently not connected.) But if 1 is for the 80's and 1 is
for the 160's, I'm not for sure. I bought the card locally used - so no docs. All I know is the chip
set (via lspci & looking at the card). I will work on getting the AHA-xxxx instead of the AIC-xxxx.
SIDE NOTE: in the scsi bios, it allows me to change the speed on all the ID's from 160 (default),
all the way down to I think it is 20, or something really low like that. So I set ID0 & ID1 at 160, and ID2 & ID3 at 80.

So no matter what I can't have all 4 drives on the same 68-pin connector? Clarify please.
Yes, most of my testing was with them connected to the same cable with the appropriate modifications
regarding speed, set in the scsi bios.

Do the U2W drives have a jumper for termpower?

Yes, "TERM PWR EN" - I did try both enabled and disabled - but I tried so many combinations,
honestly, I lost track long ago.
