Uh... That's not a SCSI bus on that drive. It's a QIC-02 bus. It
has it's own electrical specifications. It may use the same size cable, but
it is NOT the same interfaces. The sc402 is a QIC-02 controller, not a
SCSI controller. There IS a Viper 150S which IS a SCSI drive, but it then
doesn't work with the SC402 controller (since that's NOT a SCSI controller).
