Guide to SCSI Cables
Taking the mystery out of SCSI cablesSCSI cables, referred to by computer geeks as "scuzzy" cables, connect computers to various storage devices, mostly hard drives of one type or another. The vast number and variety available requires some fundamental information and knowledge about SCSI cables before buying.
There are three main kinds you are most likely to encounter:
1. An external SCSI cable is used to connect a computer to an external hard drive of some kind; it tends to look very similar to a printer cable.
2. An internal SCSI cable is seen when you open the computer case, because it's used to connect to the computer's internal drive.
3. A SCSI adapter is typically a small device to adapt 2 different types of SCSI connectors.
Action Steps
The best contacts and resources to help you get it done

If you need to replace an existing SCSI cable, buy one identical to one you already have, or if you know the kind of cable you need, you can go online and buy one from a list of SCSI cables available for sale.
I recommend:
The Computer Cable Makers offers a wide variety of SCSI cables and adapters.
Get help from expert SCSI cable makers
If you have a scary scuzzy need, a complicated situation that's over your head, don't guess, call in the experts. Get the information you need to purchase the correct cable or SCSI adapter.
I recommend:
SCSI cable makers are able to give you the expert advice you need. The PC PitStop has an internal SCSI cable link, and links for external SCSI cables as well. The SCSI Source has a link for information on SCSI connectors.
Order custom SCSI cables
The connections that are made with SCSI cables are complicated. Often you can make do with a store-bought SCSI cable, but sometimes only a custom one will do the job. Whether it's an external SCSI cable or an internal one, SCSI cables require expert knowledge in order to custom make them.
I recommend:
The SCSI Masters and Technical Cable Concepts, Inc. can provide you with custom SCSI cables.
