SCSI Installation
Guide
This chapter serves as an installation guide to the onboard SCSI interface
on your CPU card. It contains important information to ease the
installation and configuration process.
The onboard Adaptec AIC-7890 is a 32-bit single-chip host adapter
delivering Ultra2 SCSI data transfer rates up to 40Mbyte/sec in 8-bit
mode and 80Mbyte/sec in 16-bit mode to address emerging
bandwidth-hungry applications. The onboard AIC-3860 transceiver chip
is a critical single-ended to low voltage differential (LVD) SCSI chip that
enables Ultra2 SCSI and legacy SCSI peripherals to coexist without
compromising performance and extends cable lengths.
With the SCSI interface, you can connect SCSI peripherals such as hard
disk drives, scanners, CD-ROM drives and tape drives.
