External Scsi Connector - HP D6030A - NetServer - E50 Installation Manual

Chapter 4
The power cable is split into two cables, each with three power connectors.
The designed distribution is:
One string of three: CD-ROM, hard drive or optional tape drive, top
hard disk drive in mass storage cage.
Second string of three: lower three hard disk drives in mass storage
cage.
If a power connector has no mate (for example, no optional tape drive
installed), leave it unconnected and use connector designed for the device
you are connecting.
14. Replace the NetServer cover, external cables, and power cord.

External SCSI Connector

The SCSI version of HP NetServer provides an external SCSI connection for
external SCSI devices. However, this connection can only be used if the internal
68-pin connector is not used to control internal SCSI drives. See Figure 4-5.
NOTE If the SCSI controller board in PCI slot 1 is used for the
internal SCSI drives and an active external SCSI connector for
external devices is required, an additional SCSI controller
board must be installed.
The external SCSI connector provided on the SCSI Controller board does not
require any additional internal wiring. This connector only requires an external
SCSI cable to connect the external SCSI devices. The last SCSI device in the
SCSI chain should be terminated.
