I was worried that the device would not fit into the scsi microdock -
there isn't any room to the left side of the hdi-30 connector since
it comes off the unit at an angle. Since the connector comes straight
out of the rectangular metal box on the Asante Micro EN/SC with the
adb pass through cable..... I was wondering if anyone has one
connected to a microdock?
