Cables and Connectors (SCSI Models)
Which SCSI
Connectors to Use
Models with a SCSI card can be connected to up to five internal SCSI
devices.
If all the internal SCSI connectors are used, additional devices can be added
outside the PC by connecting directly to the rear panel SCSI connector. The
external connector allows up to ten external devices to be connected. This
gives a maximum of 15 (internal + external) devices that can be connected.
NOTE
The total length of the external SCSI cables should not exceed 3 meters
(approximately 10 feet).
Before Installing a
SCSI Hard Disk
If you are installing an additional SCSI drive, you should assign an
unused SCSI ID to this accessory. SCSI IDs range from 0 to 15 for wide
16-bit SCSI.
SCSI ID 0 is used by the first SCSI hard disk drive and SCSI ID 7 is reserved
for the integrated SCSI controller (the default for narrow and wide SCSI
devices).
