Attach the cables

Drives with 68 pin connectors

Connect the SCSI cable and the power cable to the drive. The SCSI connector and power connector are
keyed for proper insertion.

Drives with 80 pin connectors

80 pin drives are plugged into back planes of servers and require no cables. If you want to connect an 80
pin drive to a 68 pin SCSI cable, a converter is needed. Not all SCA converters support LVD mode.

Complete the hardware install

Ensure that the SCSI bus is terminated at both ends. (LVD SCSI models do not have onboard active
termination. You must supply an external LVD compatible terminator.)
Ÿ
Verify proper cable connection to the SCSI controller.
Ÿ
Connect all cables.
