[TriLUG] LVD and SE SCSI question

Hi folks,

This may be a stupid question, but does anyone know what might happen
if, say, an LVD SCSI drive is put on the same cable with a few SE
SCSI drives? :-[  I've been trying to figure out why the SCSI card
in the machine the CPD donated has been flaking out and on a whim
this evening I looked up the complete drive specs and notice that
one of the drives is LVD scsi.  Now, the card supports LVD scsi,
but I'm afraid I may have messed things up by putting them both
together.  I'm hoping, however, that by either just separating them,
or by finding a jumper for the jumper on the LVD drive labeled
"Force Single Ended" will fix things.  However, since I'm not
a SCSI expert, I'd like to hear a few more opinions.

Thanks in advance,
Tanner
