5-2 SCSI Guidelines
!"
For workstations, if only one SCSI hard drive is used, it should be installed in the lowest
numbered bay (bay 1). (Refer to the product-specific MSG for application).
!"
All SCSI hard drives must be either internal or external, but never both. The system
accommodates a combination of other internal and external SCSI devices, such as tape and
CD-ROM drives.
!"
Turn on all external SCSI devices before turning on the power to the computer. This
enables the SCSI controller to recognize the external devices.
Using the Multi-Mode SCSI Cable
Some products ship standard with a three-device multi-mode SCSI cable having a terminator 1
on one end. This cable supports both low voltage differential (LVD) and single ended (SE)
devices. One end of the cable connects to the internal LVD/SE connector on the system board,
while the remaining three connectors being used on the hard drives in the hard drive bays. The
third device circuit must be used.

The multi-mode cable included with the computer may differ from the one
pictured.
For additional information about installing optional SCSI devices, refer to the documentation
included with the device option kit.
