Soon time to get my scsi scanner: Umax astra 610s functioning.  Since I
heard wonderful stories of scsi hard drives considering setting up a
scsi hard drive with usb external backup drive and scsi scanner.  Have the
above mentioned scanner and a pci Adaptec 2940UW controller.

The scanner cable is 25 pin, the controller has a 68 pin external connector
and 68 and 50 internal.  

Do I have the wrong controller card for this scanner?  Some adapter required?
If also installing a hard drive does it matter if it is 50, 68 or 80 pin?
Is there a certain size of drive that will not work with a particular pin
layout?  Is the bios involved and if so how does one determine what bios
level?

 Never built a scsi system, setup a microchannel scsi once but there was no
tweaking needed.
