Features
The Smart Array 3200 Controller is a dual-channel, 32-bit array controller that
offers advanced features (see below). The Smart Array 3200 Controller supports
Wide-Ultra2 SCSI technology for improved data transfer rates and is backward-
compatible with other SCSI devices. It also includes optional daughterboards for
customizing combinations of internal and external connections (two external,
two internal, or one internal and one external). The controller supports all
Compaq SCSI hard drives: Wide-Ultra SCSI-3, Fast-Wide SCSI-2, and Fast
SCSI-2. Included with the Smart Array 3200 Controller is Compaq Array
