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 39320D has two independent SCSI channels, each with a maximum throughput of 320 - Adaptec 39320D-R | Installation Guide - Page 3
you connect them together on one channel of the Adaptec SCSI Card 39320D and that you connect newer Ultra320/160 SCSI and Ultra2 devices to the other channel. This allows the Adaptec SCSI Card 39320D to dedicate one SCSI channel to support a slower transfer rate for the Ultra (legacy) devices, while - Adaptec 39320D-R | Installation Guide - Page 4
STEP 3 Locate an unused 64-bit PCI expansion slot and remove the expansion slot cover. If the computer does not have a 64-bit slot, you can install the card in a 32-bit PCI slot. The Adaptec SCSI Card 39320D supports both 5V and 3.3V 64-bit slots. (The expansion slot must be compliant with PCI Rev - Adaptec 39320D-R | Installation Guide - Page 5
Since setup can vary from device to device, always refer to the device's documentation for specific instructions. Below are some guidelines for setting SCSI IDs and termination on your devices. Check the SCSI IDs The Adaptec SCSI Card 39320D and each device you connect to it must have a unique - Adaptec 39320D-R | Installation Guide - Page 6
sure that you have the necessary Ultra320/160 or Ultra2 cable and terminator before installing the Ultra320/160 SCSI devices. CONNECTING SCSI DEVICES You can connect a total of 30 SCSI devices to the Adaptec SCSI Card 39320D,with up to 15 devices on each SCSI channel. Before connecting devices, be - Adaptec 39320D-R | Installation Guide - Page 7
The Adaptec SCSI Card 39320D has two separate Ultra320/160 SCSI channels, as shown in the figure on page 1. Channel A has an internal LVD/SE connector to which you can connect internal SCSI devices. NOTE Adaptec recommends that you keep your Ultra320/160 and Ultra2 SCSI devices on a separate SCSI - Adaptec 39320D-R | Installation Guide - Page 8
to the 68-pin external LVD/VHDCI SCSI connectors. Each external device will require a 68-pin VHDCI external LVD SCSI cable. NOTE We recommend that you do not combine older SCSI devices with the newer Ultra320/160 and Ultra2 SCSI devices on the same SCSI channel of the Adaptec SCSI Card 39320D. 7 - Adaptec 39320D-R | Installation Guide - Page 9
