Adaptec SCSI Card 29160 INTRODUCTION The Adaptec SCSI Card 29160 Ultra160 SCSI controller enables you to connect up to 15 SCSI devices-such as hard disk drives, scanners, and CD-ROM drives-to any Intel-based computer with 32-bit or 64-bit PCI expansion slots. You can connect newer LVD SCSI devices ( - Adaptec ULTRA160 | Installation Guide - Page 4
your LVD SCSI devices by electronically isolating the primary LVD/SE segment from the secondary SE segment on the SCSI bus. This allows the Adaptec SCSI Card 29160 to support LVD SCSI devices at speeds up to 160 MBytes/sec on the primary LVD/SE segment while at the same time supporting Ultra (legacy - Adaptec ULTRA160 | Installation Guide - Page 5
Adaptec SCSI Card 29160 INSTALLING THE ADAPTEC SCSI CARD 29160 STEP 1 Discharge any static electricity build-up before handling the SCSI card by touching a grounded metal object (like the exposed metal parts on the back of your computer). WARNING Turn OFF power to the computer and disconnect the - Adaptec ULTRA160 | Installation Guide - Page 6
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 make it easier to install the Adaptec SCSI Card 29160. WARNING Be careful when inserting the Adaptec SCSI Card 29160 in a PCI slot. Some 32-bit slots will - Adaptec ULTRA160 | Installation Guide - Page 7

internal LVD/SE connector on the Adaptec SCSI Card 29160. To do this, use a 68-pin internal LVD cable like the one shown in Step 1 below. Follow these steps to connect the devices: NOTE We recommend that you keep your LVD SCSI devices separate from your SE (Ultra SCSI) devices. This allows LVD SCSI - Adaptec ULTRA160 | Installation Guide - Page 10
