Troubleshooting Checklist

Most problems with using the Adaptec SCSI Card results from
errors in preparing and connecting devices on the SCSI bus. If you
have problems, check these items first:
Are all SCSI cables and power cables properly connected?
Are all SCSI devices turned on?
Have you connected SCSI devices to more than two of the three
SCSI Channel A connectors? If you connected devices to all
three connectors, disconnect devices from one connector!
Is the Adaptec SCSI Card firmly seated and secured in the
PCI/PCI-X expansion slot?
Is the PCI expansion slot compliant with PCI Rev. 2.1 or higher
and does it support Bus Mastering?
Are all SCSI devices on each SCSI bus assigned unique SCSI
IDs?
Is termination set correctly on all the devices?
Note: If you have problems with a specific SCSI device when
other connected SCSI devices are working correctly, please
contact the manufacturer of the problem device for
troubleshooting information.
