Expanding Your Server

Connecting SCSI Devices
Your server supports up to 10 internal SCSI devices. Additional SCSI de-
vices can be added to your server by using the main logic board’s SCSI B
connector or by installing an EISA- or PCI-based SCSI controller installed
in an available expansion slot in conjunction with an external SCSI ex-
pansion box.
Storage Backplane
Your storage backplane supports seven hot-swap devices split between
two SCSI bus sections (see Figure 3-22). SCSI bus A and SCSI bus B.
SCSI bus A is the upper section and consists of four SCSI device connec-
tions. SCSI bus B is the lower bus section and consists of three SCSI de-
vice connections. These buses can be configured as two independent
SCSI buses or as one SCSI bus by installing a wide SCSI jumper cable.
Figures 3-23 through 3-26 show the available cable configurations.
Contact your Digital sales representative for ordering information about SCSI
cables and devices.
