Back when I got my external hard drive, I got a cable for it that would work for NeXT's. No problem. Well, after some time, I've noticed that the cable is a bit heavy, and it pulls down on the plug on the NeXT's port end. I was dusting today and took a look at it and saw that it was angling pretty badly off there, and so I pushed it back on. But this worries me. I really don't think it would be too good if that cable fell of the SCSI port, but the thing just does not anchor onto the port. As I recall from looking at it, the SCSI port does have some extensions to the sides which sure makes it look like with the proper plug, it could clip onto those, and prevent it from accidently popping off. Does anybody know about any such cable, where I could get it, how much, etc. Thanks. -k
