Seagate ST118202LW/LC manual Terminating the drive

46 Cheetah 18 Installation Guide, Rev. A

LC drives

Terminating the drive

LC model drives do not have internal terminators or any other way of adding internal termination to the drive. You must provide external termination to these drives when termination is required. Since this drive is designed to be plugged into a back- panel or other host enclosure without cabling, this is normally done by enabling termination on the backpanel or plane.

Note. Use active (ANSI SCSI-2 Alternative 2) single-ended ter- minators when terminating a bus operating in single- ended mode. Use SPI-2-compliant active low voltage dif- ferential terminators when terminating a SCSI Ultra2 bus operating in LVD mode.

Terminator power

ST118202LC drives cannot be configured to provide termination power.
