SCSI Backplane
The SCSI backplane of this server is comprised of two SCSI boards with a
Wide-SCSI connector, power input, and SCSI ID dip switches on each SCSI
board. This configuration allows Wide-SCSI hard disk drives to be docked
into the server using a common connector. The female end is located on the
SCSI board, while the male end is located on the hot-swap tray.
SCSI Board Placement
There are three screws on each side of the SCSI board. Both sides of the
cabinet side panels must be removed to access these screws. Please note
that notches on the top and bottom of the SCSI board must be placed as
shown in order to properly seat the SCSI boards into the chassis. The SCSI
board will only fit in one orientation but may be interchanged between the
top and bottom half but be aware of the SCSI ID setting of each board.
