Yes, I was on the phone with Granite Digital yesterday, and the
best price for their stuff is currently through MacMall.  I don't
mind spending money on good things, that's not the problem.

The cable I have now was working fine with the same internal
and external devices on a 486/66 with an Adaptec 2842.
I literally moved all the devices from that machine to this
Pentium 133 with its 2940 PCI, same IDs, same terminations.
