I've got a Emulex controller in my MicroVAX II, I'm trying to attach a
second hard drive to it, and got what looks to me the necessary cable
today. I think my problem is with the "Write Protect"/"Ready" switches
thing. I've got one that is for the Emulex, the rest I've got are DEC, it
appears the controller can handle two drives, and I'm suspecting that in
order to it needs two of these switch things.
I tried pluging one of the DEC switches into the cable and it wouldn't
work, that's when I noticed the Emulex switch has a row of DIP switches on
it. Do I need to just flip some DIP switches, to add a second drive to the
controller, or what. If anyone can tell me what these switches mean I'd
appreciate it.
