sw1-1 scsi a0
   -2 scsi a1
   -3 scsi a2
   -4 off = unused
   -5 off = 512 byte blocks
   -6 off = motor on
   -7 off = enable error reporting
   -8 off = disable parity

--- it does, with 2 drives you see sdn and sdn+1, e.g. sd4 and sd5

i use these on 3/60's, usually with scsi address 0 = sd0.

on a 4c i think you may have to remap scsi addresses, 
i.e. scsi 3 = sd0 for external drives? 
you need more help than i can give there.
good luck.
