2.2 Detailed Installation Procedure
This section provides step-by-step instructions for installing the
LSI20160, and connecting it to your SCSI peripherals. If you are
experienced in these tasks, you may prefer to use the preceding
Section 2.1, “Quick Installation Procedure.”
2.2.1 Before You Start
Before starting, read through the steps defined within the detailed
installation procedure. If you are not confident that you can perform the
tasks as described in this section, LSI Logic suggests getting assistance.
The SCSI host adapter acts on your computer’s behalf as the host to
your suite of SCSI peripherals. Each chain of SCSI peripheral devices
and their host adapter work together and are referred to as a SCSI bus.
Each SCSI host adapter that you install can act as host for up to
15 peripheral devices, not including the adapter itself.
