Installation Guide Computers may have vertical or horizontal expansion slots. Refer to your computer manual to locate the PCI slots. If your computer is a tower model, lay it on its side to allow for easier installation of the Adaptec SCSI Card 39160. WARNING Be careful when inserting the Adaptec SCSI Card 39160 in a PCI slot. Some 32-bit slots will not accommodate it, and the card may break if you force it into the slot. STEP 4 Insert the Adaptec SCSI Card 39160 in the 64-bit (or 32-bit) PCI expansion slot; press down firmly until the card clicks into place, then replace the slot cover screw. When installed properly, the card should appear level with the expansion slot, as shown below. SETTING UP SCSI DEVICES There are several things you may need to do to your SCSI devices before you connect them to the Adaptec SCSI Card 39160: • Check the SCSI IDs • Set the termination • Connect the power cables Since setup can vary from device to device, always refer to the device's documentation for specific instructions. 4
