* All drives, terminators and SCSI cables
should use Ultra2 Wide SCSI (LVD)
compliant devices only.
* Singled-ended devices should be converted
to LVD mode using a "Single-ended to LVD
converter" before connecting to the LVD
SCSI bus.
It is not recommended to connect any Single-ended devices to the LVD
drive SCSI bus directly. Using a "single-ended to LVD converter" to
convert the Single-ended device to LVD before connecting to the drive
SCSI bus.
Any Single-ended devices connecting directly to the LVD SCSI bus will
force all the devices switch back to single-ended mode. The cable length
and maximum devices should follow Single-ended standard if the bus is
operating in Single-ended mode.
IMPORTANT:
Changing any settings in "View and Edit SCSI Channels" requires a system
reset to take effect.
