If you open the Sun3 cage then you should able to find a backplane connector type cable; which attachs the SCSI board slot and cabling into the tape controller (for the new Sun) or SysGen 1000 board. This is the SCSI cabling. All you need to do is to extend this cabling to other SCSI devices and you can save youself $100. hope this help! p.s. Watch out the PIN 26 of the SCSI devices! If don't know what is the PIN 26 for then don't do it yourself! Simon Chan princeton!hhb!simon
