If necessary, install an LVD/SE
host bus adapter in the server or workstation.
8 SCSI Tape Drives Only —
Connect an active LVD/SE
terminator onto one end of the SCSI cable, if the tape
drive is the last or only device on the SCSI bus (see
figure 2
). If the SCSI cable that came with the SCSI host
bus adapter already has a terminator built into it, do
not use an additional terminator.
