Bill,
This is a HD50 to SCSI I cable? I've got one that I could test on a Sparc
here and send out to you to test your systems with. If you suspect a HW
problem, I also have a dead Sparc 1+ that you could use for parts...

Was there multiple versions of the 50 pin pinout in the early days.
Symptoms -- hung scsi bus on Sparcstations... inability to probe SCSI
when used.

I am looking for a cable to attach a Mac SE
(DB25?) to an 8"
Bernoulli Drive (Amphenol?) John Sowden
Chances are I have it, but I don't know what it is. The SE SCSI port is
DB25F (so the cable is DB25M), explain the other connector in more detail.
The three common ends are;
DB25M, most older mac SCSI devices.
Centrontics50M, most SCSI devices.
HD (high density) C50M, compaq and some sony.
