I have a 3570 I need to share between 2 machines.  The drive currently
works great on both boxes, but I have to remove the back cover and move
the cable from one system to another to do this.  I'd like to use an A/B
switch to easily do this.  The connection is SCSI cable.  A few
questions:

1.  Would there be any signal loss using an A/B switch.
2.  Can I use any SCSI cable, or do I have to use an "official" IBM
cable.
3.  Does anyone have an extra SCSI cable or SCSI switch box they are
interested in selling?

TIA.
