	I wouldn't be surprised if the cables were marginally okay for UW

differential SCSI cables, and in that case I would expect major 
problems in trying to use them with U2W LVD drives.

  Unix is like a wigwam -- no Gates, no Windows, and an Apache inside.
   Unix is very user-friendly.  It's just picky who its friends are.
