CAUTION Never force a disk into or out of the Jaz drive. SCSI Termination SCSI rules require that the first and last devices in a SCSI chain (and no others) have termination ON in order to provide proper data transfer. SCSI termination for the internal Jaz drive is set by the termination block on the data cable ­ termination is ON when the data cable connector closest to the termination block is connected to the Jaz drive. If the Jaz drive is not the last device in the chain, you need to use a different data cable in order to be able to daisy-chain to the next device. NOTE: If external SCSI devices are connected to the same adapter as the Jaz drive, termination on the adapter must be removed. Refer to the documentation that came with the adapter for additional information. Non-Iomega SCSI Adapters Your Jaz drive is a high performance drive that will work with any SCSI adapter that has a compatible ASPI manager for Windows/DOS or 32-bit miniport driver for Windows 95.
