I have this SCSI Controller conected to a Seagate Cheata 15 000 on an Epox 8kha+

This controller came with 3 cables, One 80 Pin, and two sixty eight pin ones.

One 68pin looks like a regular tape cable, the other has lots of different connectors on it, and has blue wires. I'm only connecting 1 device to the controller at the moment (the seagate HD), so I'm wondering which cable to use? Are they the same?

Did you buy the retail kit? If so, use the LVD cable. Of the two 68 pin cables it should be the one with more connectors. Are you sure it came with an 80 pin cable?

Um, actually I was wrong, its an external cable.

Thanks, I'll use the one with lots of connectors, but its so bulky, thats why I was using the one that looked like a regular IDE cable.

Works alright, but I don't want to sacrifice any performance.
