your suite of SCSI peripherals. Each chain of SCSI peripheral devices
and their host adapter work together. They are referred to as a SCSI bus.
Each SCSI host adapter that you install can act as host for up to
15 peripheral devices, not including the adapter itself. Follow the detailed
instructions in the next section to successfully install your host adapter
board.
