Configuring your Glyph Ultra Wide Drive for Install
Your Glyph ultra wide drive will interface with your SCSI
card through the SCSI cable which is supplied with your
drive, or with a cable specified by your ultra wide SCSI card
manufacturer. The drivers to use the Glyph drive with a
Macintosh are included with your ultra wide interface card
package. Follow the instructions in the card’s manual for
proper installation. The drivers are specific to the Ultra
Wide interface card that you have inside your computer.
If you have an incompatible card, Glyph can provide
currently compatible cards for most applications.
Connectivity
Ultra Wide SCSI is an interface specification that facilitates
high speed data transfer between devices. The specification
for Ultra Wide SCSI allows the connection of up to sixteen
(16) peripheral devices to one Ultra Wide interface card.
However, a more realistic, “Real World” application would
be to daisy chain up to eight (8) devices together with up
to 1.5 collective meters of cable (don’t forget to factor in
six inches of internal cabling per drive).

from inside your new hard drive’s package:
