2.3 Connecting SCSI Devices

This section explains how to connect internal and external SCSI devices to the Ultra320 SCSI host adapters.

2.3.1 Connecting Internal SCSI Devices

This section provides step-by-step instructions for connecting internal SCSI devices. The figures show the LSI22320 host adapter, which has two internal connectors and two external connectors. Other Ultra320 SCSI host adapter models have different numbers of connectors. Refer to Section 2.2.1, “Internal SCSI Cables,” page 2-4for examples of internal cables.

If you only need to connect external devices, skip to Section 2.3.3, “Connecting External SCSI Devices,” page 2-9.Otherwise follow these steps:
