Precautions
You must use caution when connecting LVD or HVD interfaces. Potential equipment
damage or bus-disabling situations that may arise if the two types are intermixed.
CAUTION:
Potential equipment damage: The single-ended, LVD, and HVD
alternatives are not compatible and cannot be mixed on the same SCSI
bus.
Symptoms of mismatched devices/buses are listed in
