I've installed a SyQuest 44 Mb removable cartridge drive on my 2000,
using a 2090 controller. I have an ST251 as my primary hard drive.
The primary drawback to this setup is that 'DiskChange' doesn't work,
so I have to reboot to switch to alternate cartridges in the SyQuest.

My question:

   At some point I may install a second SyQuest drive. Will I be able
   to use a cartridge that has been prepped in the first SCSI drive
   in the second SCSI drive? In other words, when a drive is prepped,
   can it only be used in the unit in which it was prepped?
