4-11 SCSI Cabling Guidelines Determining the Cables you Need The following guidelines are provided as an overview for first-time cable connections and installation in the ProLiant 1850R server. Only controllers listed in the tables below are supported by the ProLiant 1850R server. Refer to these tables to determine the parts that are necessary for successful cabling solutions for the ProLiant 1850R. To customize the cabling needs of your Compaq ProLiant 1850R Server to your specific application, follow the procedure below: 1. Determine whether the cabling needs are internal or external. 2. Determine whether external cabling needs are for primary storage (hard drive) or for secondary storage (tape drive or CD-ROM drive in the removable media bay). 3. Identify the controller type. 4. Identify the drive type, and expansion slot to be used.  Wide Ultra2 SCSI Hard Drive  Wide-Ultra SCSI-3 Hard Drive  Fast-Wide Hard Drive  Fast-SCSI-2 Hard Drive  Tape Drive  CD-ROM Drive 5.
