Installing SCSI Devices

4

Connect one end of the 50-pin internal SCSI cable to the SCSI 
connector on the card, as shown in the next figure. Ensure that 
the connector fits snugly.

Make sure Pin 1 on the cable aligns with Pin 1 on the internal 
SCSI device connector. Pin 1 is usually designated by a “1” or 
small triangle.

5

Connect the other end of the cable to the internal SCSI device.

6

If you are installing one internal SCSI device only, you must 
terminate this device, then skip to 

Step 9 on page 3-4

.

Refer to your SCSI device’s documentation for termination 
instructions.
