New subject: SCSI-splitting

12 Apr 2006

Hi Bernie:

Thank you for the guidance. 

I thought about that option as well, however there
would be no SCSI "space" for the computer to "talk" to
the samplers (since both of the external hard drive's
SCSI connectors would be used. My only solution would
probably be to use a SCSI splitter cable of some sort
so I can get the computer in the mix. 

Best regards,

 Novice:

  Would anyone know how I can setup two S760's
to  load
  the system software from one hard drive?
I've been
 trying to picture the SCSI chain, but am not sure  how
  I would do this while connecting a laptop to
both
 S760's.  
 Well, for starters you have no choice but to put an
 S-760 at each end
 of the SCSI chain, because they only have one SCSI
 connecter each.
 Then, assuming the drive is in an external
 enclosure, that will
 go between the two of them.  You are aware that the
 S-760 uses its
 own format on the hard drive?  That is, you can't
 just share the drive
 with Windows or Mac OS.

 Everything must have different SCSI IDs, so set the
 SCSI IDs on
 your samplers before they are connected in the same
 SCSI chain.

 Make sure you never get into a situation where both
 S-760s attempt
 to write to the drive at the same time.  In fact,
 I'd probably even
 avoid writing to the drive altogether while both
 S-760s are running,
 just to be paranoid.

 Cheers,

     Bernie
