Being that DN has confirmed the SCSI support, I can also inform you that
I had been using the Arcada Backup 2.0 on an old Jumbo 120, and when I
got my Ditto 800, it was just about the time that Seagate acquired them,
and Conner as well. So I called them about the  and they
promised an upgrade to it from the Arcada for $50, which I accepted.
I'm sure if you call them and tell them you want the Bat special,
they'll honor it for you. {^; This was before I had Inet access, so I
just called 1-800-4-CONNER and worked the deal that way. It may not
be better than sliced bread, but it gets the job done, in predictable
fashion. I used to get about 8mb/min. via the FDD cable, which is plenty
fast enough for me (while I am sleeping). {^;  Good Modeming!  /\oo/\
