What is the I/O interface? USB would see the drives as scsi , and you would need to have the appropriate device name for each. sdax,sdbx, ...etc. I don't know if the position of the jumper on the drives makes a difference, I would put the jumpers on master for each one to test. I don't run two externals per se, but my Printer has a card reader that is detected as a scsi storage device and I have an external USB drive, so technically I suppose I do have two, never use the printer card reader though. I run internal scsi drives also so their are multiple scsi buses and devices with no issues. -- Greg Madden -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
