Sorry, I do have 2 wide connectors and right behind the channel A 
connector is a scsi2 connector, I mainly just wanted to illustrate that 
I have the cdrom connected to the 53c875 card.

I was sort of hoping someone else would know. I have looked on the 
motherboard and I cannot find a 53c8210 chip, nor on the PCI card. I 
would also assume that the hard drive is connected to the siop2 since 
its on the second channel of the PCI card.
