512K bytes of Flash ROM for booting in a Sun SPARC or a Sun Solaris x86 OS processor-based host system

A 64-bit universal type board edge connector that provides:

64-bit, 133-MHz PCI-X interface compatibility

32-bit/64-bit PCI interface backwards compatibility

Installing the Host Adapter

Before you start, read these instructions, and also read the installation instructions in the documentation that applies to the storage device(s) to be connected to the host adapter. Also, before installing the host adapter, read the Sun StorEdge PCI/PCI-X Dual Ultra320 SCSI Host Adapter Release Notes for required information, including lists of supported cables and storage devices. Downloading the release notes is described in “To Access the Release Notes” on page viii

Caution – This host adapter is only for connection to a single-ended (SE) or low-

!voltage differential (LVD) device, and it does not work if connected to a high-voltage differential (HVD) device.

Caution – Damage to the HBA can occur as the result of careless handling or electrostatic discharge (ESD). Always handle the HBA with care to avoid damage to electrostatic sensitive components.

To minimize the possibility of ESD-related damage, Sun strongly recommends using both a workstation antistatic mat and an ESD wrist strap. You can get an ESD wrist strap from any reputable electronics store or from Sun as part number #250-1007.

Observe the following precautions to avoid ESD-related problems:

Leave the HBA in its antistatic bag until you are ready to install it in the system.

Always use a properly fitted and grounded wrist strap or other suitable ESD protection when handling the HBA and observe proper ESD grounding techniques.

Hold the HBA by the edge of the PCB or mounting bracket, not the connectors.

Place the HBA on a properly grounded antistatic work surface pad when it is out of its protective antistatic bag.
