Connecting External SCSI Devices
The HP NetServer may provide an external SCSI connector (optional) at the rear
panel knockout as shown in Figure 4-14. The external SCSI connector is typically
connected to a PCI SCSI disk controller board inserted in one of the PCI slots.
An external SCSI connection may also be provided by a SCSI disk controller
board or a DAC board inserted into one of the PCI slots as shown in Figure 4-14.
The last device in the SCSI chain of external devices must be terminated. See
Figure 4-14.
CAUTION Do not use high voltage differential (HVD) SCSI devices on
any of the SCSI channels or damage will occur. The HVD
SCSI devices are not supported. Use only Single-Ended (SE)
or Low-Voltage Differential (LVD) devices to connect to the
external connectors.
