4 Installing Mass Storage Devices
Introduction
This chapter describes how to install the internal mass storage devices, including
the internal SCSI Hot Swap hard disk drives and the optional Tape Backup
(DAT) Drive. The requirements for external SCSI drives are provided in the
respective topic later in this chapter.
NOTE The two embedded SCSI controllers both operate as LVD
(Low-Voltage Differential) controllers, but if a SE
(single-ended) device is connected to the controller, it
automatically switches to SE and all SCSI devices connected to
the controller must operate as SE devices. A 68-pin to 50-pin
SCSI adapter is provided on the terminated SCSI cable used for
non-hot swap SCSI devices. If your system was not configured
with a backup (DAT) tape drive, you must use the terminated
non-hot swap cable for the tape drive.
Installing Storage Devices After Shipment
If you are installing mass storage devices that were not shipped with your HP
NetServer, certain configurations may require additional cables or adapters not
provided with your HP NetServer shipment. For part numbers of the required
items, such as HP cables, adapters, trays, and configuration information, see
Information Assistant on the HP NetServer Navigator CD-ROM.
