Scsi Device Configurations; Introduction; Storage Configuration Guidelines - Digital Equipment Digital Server 3220 Series System Reference Manual

Introduction

Your DIGITAL Server 3220/3220R supports wide Ultra internal SCSI disk drives and
wide Ultra2 (LVD) for external devices on SCSI channel 2. The following sections
describe the SCSI configuration guidelines that must be adhered to, so your server
operates correctly after installing and connecting SCSI devices.
The server supports two SCSI channels. Channel 1 is used to connect internal SCSI
devices. Channel 2 is used to connect external SCSI devices.

Storage Configuration Guidelines

•
The server supports up to seven internal storage devices, including one CD-
ROM drive, one diskette drive, two 5¼-inch drives, and four hot swap drives.
•
The CD-ROM drive is attached to the IDE controller.
•
The CD-ROM drive is scanned first when the server boots. If a bootable
CD-ROM disc is placed in the CD-ROM drive, it will boot in place of drive A
or drive C.
•
The BIOS boot settings determine the boot order of storage devices.
