I nstalling an external

winchester

Connect the external winchester to the back of the SCSI controller card

using the 50 way ribbon cable provided, making sure that the
polarising bumps on the cable sockets mate with the slots on the plugs
at the rear of the Archimedes and the Winchester. There are two 50
way plugs on the rear of the winchester drive to allow other SCSI
devices to be daisy chained. These plugs are wired in parallel and so
either can be used.

Now move on to the section headed Initial Testing.
