AlphaStation and misc parts

I've got an AlphaStation 255. I've got a matching StorageWorks shelf
with disks. I've got an ATTO ExpressPCI PSC card I just pulled out of
an old Mac.

The next time I can shut down the AlphaStation, I intend to insert the
ATTO card. According to ATTOtech.com, this card will work with Linux,
which is what I'm running on the machine at the moment.

What I'm trying to figure out is how do I connect the card with the
shelf? The shelf currently has a DS-BA35X-FA personality card in it,
whose plug doesn't match the one on the ATTO card. What personality
card should I get to do this? Or is there an adapter I can use?


While I'm at it, I'm considering plugging in an OrangeLink+ card, just
to see if Linux recognizes it. I've also got a Radeon for Mac card, but
I'm not planning to put that in.

I found a SCSI cable to use for this. For some reason, the controller
won't stay online long enough to boot or do anything in VMS. Maybe I
can mount ODS-2 volumes in Linux? At least for reading?
