SCSI devices for installation on the SCSI bus, installing the host
adapter in the EISA system, connecting the devices to the SCSI bus,
cabling and reassembling the system.
For experienced users who are already familiar with SCSI and SCSI

that allow you to get your host adapter up and running quickly.
If you are new to SCSI peripherals, or if you have limited experience

hensive instructions and illustrations found in Installation on page
