Introduction
The Adaptec SCSI Card 29320A enables you to connect up to 15
Low Voltage Differential (LVD) and/or 15 Single-Ended (SE) SCSI
devices—such as very large arrays of high-performance hard disk
drives, external storage subsystems, Ultra320/160 hard disk drives,
scanners, and CD-ROM drives—to any Intel-based computer with
64- or 32-bit PCI/PCI-X expansion slots.
The Adaptec SCSI Card 29320A has one internal and one external
68-pin LVD connector and two internal SE SCSI connectors (one
68-pin and one 50-pin).
Although the Adaptec SCSI Card 29320A is a 64-bi t PCI/PCI-X
card, it also works in a 32-bit PCI slot. When installed in a 32-bit
PCI slot, the card automatically runs in the slower 32-bit mode.
