Install SCSI hardisk is easy, just make sure the end of SCSI chain is terminated properly, and make sure SCSI ID is set properly (like IDE drive, you need to set jumper)- each SCSI device, include the SCSI card, must have its own SCSI ID. usually SCSI card default ID = 7, harddisk start from 0. The only problem for you is: 2906 is a low end SCSI card (10Mbyte/s), it is designed for scaner, CDROM or similar low speed devices, it only has 50pin internal connector, which is not compatible with todays SCSI harddisk, they are fast devices (Ultra Wide 2 SCSI transfer rate = 80Mbyte/s, Ultra Wide SCSI transfer rate = 40Mbyte/s) which require 68pin cable and use Ultra Wide interface. You may only use old SCSI drive on this card.
