It does NOT matter whether a cable is a cable-select cable or not, when you jumper your drives as master and slave. They behave as master and slave, as jumpered, no matter what the cable is. Why is it that people do not understand this? The jumpers on the drive override anything else. You have to specifically set drives into the cable-select mode for them to pay any attention to the type of cabling.
Well, that depends on the drive. The CS system is designed such that a drive *can* override based on jumpers, and I've never seen a drive which used the cable select to override the jumpers, and it wouldn't make sense do to so to me, but drives' incompatibilities with each other being what they are, and electronic designs and testing being what they are...
