AcceleRAID 170LP Installation Guide

Preparing the SCSI Drives

To prepare the drives for installation, follow these steps:

1. Remove any terminators attached to the drive or set any drive

termination jumpers to the disabled position.

2. Set the SCSI IDs on the drives, using a unique address between 0 and

15, but do not use address 7, as it is reserved for the controller. You
may need to refer to the instructions that came with your disk drives.

3. Enable term power on the drives.

Refer to the drive manual for specific information about drive configuration
settings.

Installing Cables and Setting Termination

Please refer to Table 2-4 on page 2-18 for SCSI Formats and Bus Length
requirements.

4. There are three possible configurations to connect devices to the

AcceleRAID 170LP controller:

(a) Connect the SCSI cable from to the internal SCSI connector on

the AcceleRAID 170LP controller to an internal disk drive set
(Figure 2-10).
