Before connecting devices, be sure to also review Setting Up SCSI Devices on page 4. Internal Ultra 160-LVD SCSI Connector (68-pin) Connect internal LVD and Ultra 160-LVD devices using the internal Ultra160-LVD connector. To do this, use a 68-pin internal LVD cable, similar to the one shown in Step 1 below. Follow these steps to connect your internal LVD and Ultra160 devices: NOTE We recommend that you keep your Ultra160-LVD devices separate from your Ultra devices. Connecting an Ultra device to the Ultra 160-LVD SCSI connector forces the Ultra160LVD SCSI segment and any attached devices to drop down to Ultra SCSI performance levels. (See Bus Segments on the Adaptec SCSI Card 29160N on page 2.)
