Should work; suck it and see. Adaptec SCSI controllers come with a
SCSI interrogator program that will tell you what it finds on the
SCSI bus and a what id. So a little experimenting should determine
the jumper settings. N.B. if you change jumpers you will likely
need to power down again before the changes are recognised. In all
likelihood the jumpers were already set to something sensible.

It's good for playing audio stuff, good sound output :-)

>1. jumper settings to change SCSI ID numbers
I don't recall the exact location but it's should be very easy to guess at it.
You only have 3 jumpers to play with.
    x   x  x

let say the left is bit 0 and the right most is bit 2
no jumper installed = id 0
bit 1 shorted = 1
bit 2 shorted = 2
bit 3 shorted = 4
bit 1 + bit 2 shorted = 3
....

If you want to unterminate than that's it.

Yes, works with Future Domain and adaptec boards.
