I just bought a Yamaha CRW 6416S CD burner on Ebay, for use on my Ultra-2.
There are jumpers on the back for fixing the SCSI unit number (easy), plus
two marked 'Parity' and 'Block' (also 'Terminate', which I presume should
be out).
So should those two be In or Out? Judging by my previous CD-ROM, I thought
In for both, because that previous one had jumpers 'Parity' and
'Sector-Size', both of which needed to be in. But it worketh not so far,
and it is too late at night to try all the permutations just now :-( .
The Yamaha was manufactured in 1999, and I assume that in those days you
had to jumper them for the Sun 512-block nonsense (or doesn't Solaris 10
care about that anymore?).
