Why not just move the secondary drive to the master position?
You don't want to do that with that manual setting.
Or tell the BIOS to "Auto" all drives ...
Hey, that sounds familiar, now where did I see that first.
Hey Ron, here's another one.

Funny that, coming from you who obviously has never been to the SCSI group.

Interesting word choice in his case.
By dismantling it.
Nope, just lift the cable slightly. That's what "peek" means. If I had
wanted you to dismantle it, I would have said so.
Nope, not if you connect it to the end connector.
The point I was making was that a drive at the end of such a cable
would identify itself as the slave, if it was jumpered for CS mode.

No, you still haven't made any point.

So, what IS your point?
All you have done is making observations that apparently would have to do with
the point you are trying to make but still haven't made it. Let's hear your point.

So because I don't post in a SCSI group that means I know nothing about
it? Don't you suppose that in the past 14 years or so I've been
building PCs and installing/setting up servers I may just have come
across them once or twice? Hell the first CD writer I ever saw was
SCSI.

They made it idiot proof now. Blue goes to mobo, black is for master

Howdy!
When using a normal cable, you can't use Cable Select anyway ...
Or is your definition of "normal" a bit different from everyone
else's?

Not quite - I've seen idiots swap them end for end.
But that's not the first cable select cable design - Compaq, back in
the bad old days, used to use (at first go!) the middle connector as master
(since it was wired to the motherboard), then they'd lift the cable select
wire (28, IIRC) so that the END connector was slave.
Didn't believe that until I saw such a cable. Hopefully, there
weren't but about a dozen or so make ... sigh.

Reading sure isn't one of your strong points, is it!

Obviously they must have had the likes of you in mind when they designed it like that.

1. He said 'normal' cable.
2. He said "cut a wire".
How much indication do you need that obviously (in his mind) he wasn't
talking about Cable Select cables?
3. Which was quite strange given the remark that he was commenting upon.
Anyone who answers to such a post as if it made perfect sense is clueless.

Yes, do you?

It was a stupid, dishonest snip. You saved a whopping one sentence,
where you accuse Folkert of knowing nothing about SCSI. Then you
pretend like his response to your accusation was a claim that YOU know
nothing about SCSI, when the issue at hand, obviously, was Folkert's
knowledge level. Are you logically handicapped, or simply dishonest?
