Ok... Here's an odd question...

Can one have 2 BlueScsi devices on one computer?

Obviously, you'd need to make sure there were no SCSI ID conflicts. I'm considering an A/UX system, and putting the swap space on one SD card just sounds like a better idea than mixing it with the other drive images in the same card.

@bitterdonald You can - sure - but if it's on the same bus what do you gain?

(thinking out loud) Only one SCSI device can be in control of the bus at any given time. Anything running A/UX will have a fairly slow bus speed. (Personally) I wouldn't bother - but I could be missing something!

Besides ID conflicts you also have to ensure the the bus is terminated correctly.
