17/18 replies indicate that it does matter, do not use, as a rule of thumb
do not mix/match differential and non-differential devices, period.

possible side-effects:
---------------------
- wrong voltage, hi/lo voltage, hardware screwed up
- system won't boot, won't recognize SCSI controller and disk
- system will boot, but you will get random read/write errors
  in the near future (definately a no no in a production env.)

one useful site was forwarded http://www.faqs.org/faqs/scsi-faq/

Thanks all,

- Mike
