You only need one SCSI port on your Mac Classic for the CD-drive or 
ZIP-drive.
The connection between Mac and EII uses a serial port, not a SCSI 
port.
You have to connect the EII "computer interface" with a special cable 
to the Mac. This cable must have a mini-DIN8 connector towards the 
Mac and a DB25 connector towards the EII. For specs about this cable -
 or ordering it - see www.emulatorarchive.com.

Configurations can be found in the database section of this group.
