Ultra SCSI devices, the data transfer speed of the LVD SCSI devices will drop to the speed of the older devices. (See Bus Segments on the Adaptec SCSI Card 29160 on page 4.) Follow these steps to connect the external devices: Connect one end of the external LVD SCSI cable to the external LVD/SE connector on the Adaptec SCSI Card 29160. - Page 16 Installation Guide Connect the other end of the external SCSI cable to a SCSI connector on the back of an external SCSI device. If you are installing only one external device, terminate the device and skip to Step 4. An LVD terminator must be used for LVD SCSI devices to ensure optimum performance.
