SCSI Controller 

The embedded Adaptec AIC-7899W dual function SCSI controller provides Ultra160 (LVDS), 
(Ultra 2), and Ultra wide (SE) SCSI interfaces as two independent PCI functions.   

The SDS2 baseboard provides active terminators, termination voltage, resetable fuse, and 
protection diode for both SCSI channels.  Onboard terminators can be enabled/disabled using the 
BIOS setup menu.
