Figure 9-4 Single-ended and Differential SCSI Cables
SCSI Connectors
Some systems include only one media storage device connected to the
SiliconExpress board. One end of a SCSI cable plugs into the board
and the other end plugs into a SCSI connector at the back of the
storage device.
Most systems include multiple storage devices. SCSI cables connect
the devices in a chain by linking the SCSI connector at the back of the
Þrst device to a SCSI connector at the back of the second device, and so
on. Then the chain is attached to the SiliconExpress board.
