If you install a SCSI adapter, you can attach a SCSI storage expansion enclosure to
your server.
To attach an external device:
1. Read "Before you begin" on page 69 and the documentation that comes with your
options.
2. Turn off the server and all attached devices.
3. Follow the instructions that come with the option to prepare it for installation and
to connect it to the server.
Note: If you are attaching a SCSI device, see "SCSI ports" on page 111 for SCSI
ID and cabling information.
The following illustration shows the input/output connectors (ports) and the
expansion slots on the rear of the server. For pin assignments and other details about
