Storage Adapter Installation

Caution: Make a backup of your data before changing your system

configuration.

These steps install the LSI20320-R. The following text provides an
explanation of each step.

Step 1: Unpack Storage Adapter

Unpack the LSI20320-R in a static-free environment. Remove the
LSI20320-R from the antistatic bag and inspect it for damage. If it
appears to be damaged, or if the LSI Logic Host Bus Adapter CD
is missing, contact LSI Logic or your OEM support representative.

Step 2: Prepare Computer

Turn off the computer and remove the power cord from the back of
the power supply. Remove the cover from the chassis. Be certain
to disconnect the computer from the power and from any networks
before installing the controller card
.

Step 3: Install LSI20320-R Host Bus Adapter

Install the LSI20320-R in a 3.3 V or 5 V PCI slot, as shown in

Figure 2

. Press down gently, but firmly, to seat the card properly the

slot. The bottom edge of the controller card must be flush with the
slot. Then attach the LSI20320-R to the computer chassis with the
bracket screw. The LSI Logic Ultra320 SCSI to PCI-X Storage
Adapter User’s Guide
provides detailed instructions for installing
and configuring the LSI20320-R.

Step 4: Connect the SCSI Devices to the LSI20320-R

Connect SCSI devices to the internal high-density 68-pin SCSI
connectors and/or the external very high-density 68-pin SCSI
connectors. To achieve maximum data throughput, use only
Ultra320 SCSI devices. The LSI20320-R supports up to 15 Ultra320
SCSI devices and a maximum SCSI bus cable length of 12 m.

Disable SCSI termination on all the devices that are not located at
the end of the SCSI bus. Use only high-quality ribbon SCSI cables
for internal devices and high-quality round SCSI cables for external
devices.

Figure 1

and the following table provide the location and

definition of the connectors on the LSI20320-R.
