I have 2 ST's one has a megafile30 the other has an ICD 30M
drive (seagate with SCSI ). I would like to do a one time
transfer of LOTS of programs/data between the two. 

The manual for the megafile30 says I have to open the case to
change its drive #'s and that would void the warranty. The ICD
did not come with a manual. The ICD has both a DMA out and SCSI
out ports (daisy chain). 

	I'm thinking that I should plug the ICD
in to the ST's DMA as drives C-D-E ; open the megafile and
change the dip switches (but to what I don't know)
to make it F-G-H and plug it into the DMA port on the ICD.

So waddya think? Anyone know?
