5-3 CONNECTING INTERNAL SCSI DEVICES
If you are connecting several internal SCSI devices (more than 2
CD-ROM drives), make sure you have an internal SCSI cable with
enough connectors to accommodate all of your devices. The
enclosed SCSI flat cables can serve up to 2 CD-ROM drives.
Follow these steps to ensure a proper installation of your internal
SCSI devices:
1. Prepare each CD-ROM drive for installation; configure the
device SCSI ID and terminators (terminate the last internal
device attached to the cable by setting its termination to the ON
position; all other internal devices on the SCSI bus must have
their termination set to OFF).
2. Install the CD-ROM drive in your computer.
3. Plug the connector at one end of the internal SCSI cable into
the host adapter’ s SCSI connector on the Motherboard.
Note: Make sure the cable s colored stripe is aligned with pin-1 of
the host adapter’ s connector. Pin-1 of the SCSI connector is usually
designated by a small triangle (s ), or a “1 at one corner of the
connector.
4. Connect the remaining connectors on the cable to the SCSI
devices (CD-ROM drives, etc.).
Note: Make sure the cable s colored stripe is aligned with pin-1 of
the SCSI device s connector.
5. Connect a DC power cable (from your computer’ s power supply)
to the power connector on each SCSI device.
