I guess they all come set to SCSI ID=0 or >1 <I think it's 0>, but I am wondering how I could change that? From your title line you indicate a 20 meg drive. Nearly all of these drives CAN be changed by a set of "suitcase jumpers" (so called because they look like little suitcases I suppose :-) mounted on the controller board. If this is a normal stock apple 20 meg drive, there is a good chance that it is a 20 Meg Miniscribe of the model 8425 variety. If so just call MINSCRIBE's public tech support at 1-800-356-5333 and ask them which jumper is which. Only problem is that the internal address of 0 (default) typically requires NO jumpers, therefor you need to find some. They also have to be the half height type in order to provide clearance. I went to a local mac repair shop and the guy just gave me 3 (they're pretty dinky). Hope this helps -- Jeff Wiseman: ....uunet!tellab5!wiseman OR wiseman@TELLABS.COM
