If you are installing a SCSI host adapter card , configure the card and install it
in an empty expansion slot (see "Installing an Expansion Card" in Chapter 9.)
If you attach any SCSI hard-disk drives to the host adapter card, connect the
hard-disk drive access cable to the SCSI host adapter card and to the AUX
LED connector on the system board (see Figure 9-1).
For additional instructions on connecting SCSI devices, see "SCSI Cables" found
earlier in this section.
If you are installing an internal SCSI device , firmly press the SCSI cable's header
connector onto the 50- or 68-pin connector on the back of the device.
The connectors on Narrow SCSI cables are keyed for proper positioning—a raised
area on the outside of the header connector fits into a notch on the device con-
nector. The connectors on Wide SCSI cables are shaped so that they can be
attached one way only.
