Will a Duo work in SCSI Disk Mode in a Duo Dock? Here is a quote from TIL
that may also help with the cables you need:
http://til.info.apple.com/techinfo.nsf/artnum/n14189
"18) Question: Can I use the Duo in SCSI Disk Mode?
Answer: Yes, but you need a Duo MiniDock, an Apple HDI-30 SCSI Disk Adapter,
model number M2539LL/A, a standard SCSI cable, part number M0206, and a SCSI
terminator, part number M0209. You CANNOT use SCSI disk mode when using the
Duo Dock, floppy drive adapter or PowerBook Duo alone.
19) Question: Which cable do I need if I want to hook up a SCSI device to my
Duo?
Answer: If you are using a MiniDock or full dock use the HDI-30 System Cable
(Long 18-inch light gray cable with 29 pins on the HDI-30 end) to connect a
SCSI device. "
I have not yet tried to connect my Duo in SCSI disk mode.
Also if you need more info on hooking up SCSI devices take a look at:

Hope it helps,
