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 (includes Ultra160 and Ultra2) to the two 68-pin Low Voltage Differential/Single-Ended (LVD/SE) connectors. You can also connect legacy SCSI devices to the 68-pin and 50-pin internal Single-Ended (SE) connectors. 68-pin Internal LVD/SE Connector 68-pin Internal SE Connector 68-pin External LVD/SE Connector 50-pin Internal SE Connector Although the Adaptec SCSI Card 29160 is a 64-bit PCI card, it also works in a 32-bit PCI slot.

Adaptec SCSI Card 29160
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 (includes Ultra160 and Ultra2) to the two
68-pin Low Voltage Differential/Single-Ended (LVD/SE) connec-
tors. You can also connect legacy SCSI devices to the 68-pin and
50-pin internal Single-Ended (SE) connectors.
Although the Adaptec SCSI Card 29160 is a 64-bit PCI card, it
also works in a 32-bit PCI slot. When installed in a 32-bit PCI
slot, the card automatically runs in the slower 32-bit mode.
