Hi ,
I have 3 lvd drives --- and a brand spanking new 19160 adaptec controller (upgraded from a ultra wide card) 2drives are capable of ultra 80 the other 160... I also bought a new cable with a terminator (vendor claiming its a lvd 160 compatible cable) my problem is when terminated the transfer rate reduces to 40 on ALL drives
when not terminated they post there proper transfer rates,,,but win2k reboots on its own .
the termination in the adapters bios is on auto
I suspect i have the wrong terminator for the cable

any thoughts???

and how do i tell?
