SCSI Cabling

ii. SCSI Connection Example

This is an example of how SCSI devices can be connected to your server.

Two 9GB Ultra2-SCSI hard disks in the 3.5” cage can be connected to
the Ultra2 connector on the motherboard for 18GB of main storage.

One Ultra-SCSI tape drive in the 5.25” cage is connected to the 50-pin
narrow connector on the motherboard for routine backups.

The Wide-SCSI connector on the motherboard can be extended (using
an optional SCSI cable with external bracket) to the chassis slot opening
for connection of an external 4GB Ultra-Wide hard disk drive and a
Wide-SCSI CD recorder for archives.

Example of SCSI connections

68-pin Ultra2 Hard Disks

IDE Hard Disk Drive

68-pin Ultra2 Cable

50-pin SCSI Tape Drive
(Terminated)

IDE CD-ROM Drive

Terminator

50-pin Fast/Ultra-Narrow Cable

68-pin Fast/Ultra-Wide Cable

68-pin Fast/Ultra-Wide Cable

68-pin external SCSI connector

68-pin Wide-SCSI CD-R Drive
(with external casing & power)
(Terminated)

68-pin Ultra-Wide Hard Disk
(with external casing & power)

You must terminate the SCSI cable even if no devices
are connected. Either place a terminator here or remove
the SCSI cable from the motherboard. This holds true for
each unused SCSI cable.
