Connecting Internal Ultra320/160 and Ultra2 Devices
A special 68-pin internal LVD cable is needed to connect internal
Ultra320/160 or Ultra2 SCSI devices. If your cables are not
marked, you can identify most LVD cables as having twisted
pairs of the flat ribbon cable between the device connectors. Some
cables are laminated so that they lay flat. Internal LVD cables
usually have a terminator built into the end of the cable.
The Adaptec SCSI Card 29320LP has one internal LVD/SE
connector to which you can connect internal SCSI devices.

and Ultra2 SCSI devices separate from your Ultra SCSI

Adaptec SCSI Card 29320LP LVD/SE connectors, the
Ultra320/Ultra160 and Ultra2 SCSI hard disk drives will slow
to Ultra SCSI performance levels.
Follow these steps to connect your internal Ultra320/160 and
Ultra2 devices:
