SCSI devices such as hard drives and tape drives must be terminated if they are the last physical devices at either end of the SCSI bus (if nothing else is actively terminating the end of the bus such as a terminator or backplane). If a device is inserted into the middle of the SCSI bus, then it (the device itself) should not be terminated. Only terminate each end of the bus. 24 Intel RAID Controller SRCU32 User's Guide

Intel RAID Controller SRCU32 User’s Guide
WARNING
SHOCK HAZARDS may be present inside the unit in which this card is being installed.
Disconnect all power cords to the unit before removal of any covers.
Follow the warnings noted
in the computer’s user or service manual before installing this board.
ONLY after all the covers
are reinstalled should you reattach the power cords and power up the unit for the software
installation and use.
NOTE
Take precautions to prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage before handling the Intel RAID
Controller SRCU32.
Install the Intel RAID Controller SRCU32 into an available PCI slot.
Refer to the board
documentation for details.
1.
Shut down and power-off the computer system.
2.
Disconnect power cord(s) and remove the system cover.
3.
Insert the Intel RAID controller into an available PCI slot.
4.
Connect one end of the SCSI cable to the internal (68 pin) or external (VHDCI) SCSI
connector located on the SRCU32 Controller.
Connect the other end of the SCSI cable to the
SCSI drives or drive enclosure.
5.
Replace the system cover; reconnect power cord(s).
Programming the FLASH Memory
The Intel RAID Controller SRCU32 normally comes ready to be immediately installed into the
computer server board.
However, you may need to reprogram the RAID Firmware that’s located in
the flash memory of the Intel RAID Controller SRCU32.
Refer to section 11 Appendix Firmware
Update for a normal reprogram of the firmware.
SCSI Termination
Termination
Termination is a commonly overlooked requirement when connecting SCSI devices together.
When these devices are connected together, the resulting set of devices is typically referred to as a
SCSI bus. SCSI devices such as hard drives and tape drives must be terminated if they are the last
physical devices at either end of the SCSI bus (if nothing else is actively terminating the end of the
bus such as a terminator or backplane).
If a device is inserted into the middle of the SCSI bus, then
it (the device itself) should not be terminated.
Only terminate each end of the bus.
