Re: [LUG] SCSI Drive.

Thanks for the reply.
There's a sticker with a serial number, on it says 'automatic line
switching' and the actuall port can only be described as, really big, bigger
than my printer port. That's all I know. I have contacted LaCie and am
waiting for something from them.
Thanks again.
Jon Davey.

Is there anything with the device that states what scsi types it is
compatable
with? That should then point you towards a controller card with any luck! Or
can you find more info on www.lacie.com regarding your device.
