I need some help with connecting a CDROM drive to my Amiga. I've never actually connected an external SCSI device so... I need to make sure I know what I'm doing :) I have: An A2000 with Internal Supra WordSync SCSI Hard-Drive. An NEC CDR-36 External CD-ROM drive. The Supra WordSync manual describes the external port as a DB-25 SCSI port... and states that it follows the Macintosh format (On the 25-pin connector, pins 7,9,14,16,18, and 24 connect to ground.. on the 50-pin connector, all odd pins except 25 connect to ground). So, I'm assuming I need a DB-25 to Centronics 50 cable to connect the drive? Anyone else have a CD-ROM drive attached to a WordSync? Perhaps you could give some suggestions? Any help would be appreciated!
