External HD to internal ?

[DVDSP]

I have an old external LaCie SCSI HD that I'd like to make an internal HD. It seems straight forward enough but I will need an internal SCSI cable and am wondering how to determine what kind of cable I'll need. Any ideas on how to do this?

Also, will I need to plug it into my SCSI card or can I plug it into my existing HD?

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,

John

Anything else you need to know?

Ah, my bad, i didn't realize you *have* a SCSI card. Yes, you'll need to plug it into this, it won't work on an IDE chain. I'm not good with SCSI, but your best bet is to look at the connectors on your card, and HD, count the pins, and go get a cable with that pin count... it's what i do whenever i'm trying to figure out which cable to get...

Thanks Paul,

I was hoping it would be that easy but I wasn't sure.

Thanks again.
