Connecting Additional Equipment

Where to add cable terminators when connecting two or more SCSI devices:

Using your PowerBook as a SCSI disk

If you have a PowerBook Duo MiniDock, you can purchase a cable called
the Apple HDI-30 SCSI Disk Adapter, which lets you connect your
PowerBook to another computer as a hard disk. The PowerBook appears on
the desktop of the other computer as a hard disk icon, and you can transfer
information between the computers by dragging files. This feature is called
SCSI disk mode.

The Apple HDI-30 SCSI Disk Adapter is dark gray (the same color as your
PowerBook computer), is about 10 inches long, and has 30 pins.

The PowerBook Duo Dock and Duo Dock II do not support SCSI disk mode.

WARNING

Follow the steps for connecting and disconnecting SCSI

devices carefully to avoid loss of information and damage to your
equipment.
