Be careful when you are pulling the old scsi cable off the connector. The contacts will pull out with the cable. My tecnique is to roll the cable off the contacts. Using your thumb and fore finger, put the nail side of your thumb against the sharp barbs that the wires are impaled on. (use the nail side, cause the barbs will stabb right into the other side) Pull the cable up and toward you bit by bit, using your thumbnail to keep the barb held down, as you pull the wire out. Takes a little practice. If a contact starts to pull out, push it back down, and give it another shot. They are a real pain to put back, if you pull them all the way out.
