SATA II RAID Subsystem
26 User Manual
3.2 Connecting to Host
The subsystem supports the Ultra 320 SCSI LVD interface which provides fast
320MB/S data transfer rates using a 16-bit SCSI bus. Installation of the disk array
is very similar to the installation of a standard SCSI drive. The SCSI connector
accepts the standard 68-pin LVD SCSI connector used on most LVD SCSI devices.
Refer to your system and/or SCSI host adapter manual for additional installation
procedures that may apply to your system or host adapter.
1. The package comes in two external SCSI cables. For every pair of host channel
SCSI connector at the rear of the subsystem, attach one end of the external
SCSI cable to one of the SCSI connectors and the other end to the host
adapter’s external SCSI connector. (The host adapter is installed in your Host
subsystem.)
2. Connect the other host system using the other external SCSI cable if you
want to configure subsystem into multi-host attachment.
3.3 Powering On
1. Plug in the power cords into the AC Power Input Socket located at the rear of the
subsystem.
NOTE: The subsystem is equipped with redundant, full range
power supplies with PFC (power factor correction). The system
will automatically select voltage.
2. Turn on each Power On/Off Switch to power on the subsystem.
3. The Power LED on the front Panel will turn green.
