Can I plug the Buz into my existing SCSI controller?

This is included here because it’s a Frequently Asked Question, but… it’s completely nonsensical. The Buz is a SCSI controller, not a SCSI target device (like a tape drive or hard disk). If you’re asking this question, you probably have a misunderstanding of how the Buz device looks and works. See the FAQ listing above for more details. And now, for the technical nit-picking… Yes, I suppose you could physically connect the Buz SCSI controller to your existing SCSI host adaptor, much like you could connect your two serial ports together. They would both conflict at SCSI ID #7 until you changed one, and then you would probably confuse the hell out of Windows as the same devices show up on both SCSI controllers. It’s silly; save yourselves — don’t do it!
