Hard Drive Installation
Using a SCSI Cable
Selected models of the Evo Workstation W8000 ship with a
multimode SCSI cable that supports Low Voltage Differential
(LVD) or single-ended devices (UATA models do not have the SCSI
cable).
The Evo Workstation W8000 ships with a LVD cable that supports
up to five SCSI devices. The cable accommodates up to three SCSI
devices in the removable hard drive cage and two in the front drive
bay area. Some Evo Workstation W8000 models ship with an
internal SCSI drive installed in the front drive bay area. You can add
additional high-performance SCSI drives using the external SCSI
connector located on the rear panel of the workstation.
Five-device SCSI cable with terminator
The cable that shipped with your workstation may look different than
the one illustrated (a five-device cable).
If you are installing a narrow SCSI device, you will need to attach a
68-pin to a 50-pin SCSI adapter.
For additional information about installing optional SCSI devices,
refer to the documentation included with the device option kit, or
contact your Compaq authorized dealer, reseller, or service provider.
