Hi All ,
        I recently wrote about a problem attaching a DLT TZ89
        drive to a Alphaserver 2000 4/200 . I will summarise
        that later , but in relation to that , I have read
        a lot about scsi and received a LOT of replies .
        The TZ89 tape drive is a Fast , Wide , scsi-2
        single ended device .
        To quote from the TZ89 manual (specifically the
        desk top model ) :
        "The tape drive can be connected to :
        a) fast, wide single-ended scsi bus
        b) slow, single-ended scsi bus
        c) fast, wide differential bus . "

        I understood that single-ended and differential
        didn't work without the converter . Is the manual wrong ??


Thanking you ,
