I don't see why not. You should be able to use any two connectors as
long as your termination is correct. You shouldn't try to use all three.
How do you like your Advansys card? Would you buy another one? I've used
lots of BusLogic stuff, but I'm thinking about buying an Advansys for a
new machine because it's significantly cheaper and the Linux driver is
"official" and GPL'd.
