you will need a suitable cable or adapter.

How can I check the SCSI bus type and SCSI ID?
For many operating systems, you can install and run HP Library & Tape Tools from either the HP
StorageWorks Tape CD-ROM or http://www.hp.com/support/tapetools to check your server’s current
SCSI configuration (see also “ Diagnostic tools ” on page 55. This will provide information about the SCSI
bus and the SCSI IDs in use.
