[Sunhelp] Help reqd for SCSI errors !!

[shivraj yadav]

Thyanks for ur suggestion. Can u pls tell me the name of the cable since 
there isn't mentioned anything on the HDD.
Also, since this external HDD sits in a external shoe-box, which has a flat 
50-pin cable, how can i replace that cable ..... since that cable also goes 
to other HDD in a chain fashion & these HDD are normal 50-pin SCSI HDD.

Thanks
