You do need to jumper it if it is to be run in Ultra-Wide Single Ended (SE) mode, which is the only way to run the drive if you have a 2940UW or do not yet have U2W support for your 2940U2W. Lawrence wrote: > you don't need to jumpper the seagate cheetah lp scsi hard disk, it is > auto-detected

you don't need to jumpper the seagate cheetah lp scsi hard disk, it is auto-detected. According to seagate, you will see a burst if plug your u2w hard disk in u2w controller. Lawrence Christopher Barry wrote: > > A lot of U2W disk drives can be jumpered to run in UW single ended mode, so > tha

A lot of U2W disk drives can be jumpered to run in UW single ended mode, so that they can be run on a 2940UW or a 2940U2W without the U2W connecter working yet. I should note though that the cable that comes with U2W controllers (part # ACK-68I-U2W) uses a differential terminator and cannot be u

Hi Lawrence, I read on the kernel-list that the new boards run all except U2W - but they are working on it and it may soon be done. You can use the other SCSI-Parts up to UW-SCSI without any problems. You simply can't use the U2W-Part of your controller until they (the kernel and driver developers
