xSeries 230 / Netfinity 5100 Internal SCSI Cabling
The xSeries 230 and Netfinity 5100 contain a DASD backplane supporting six hot-swap, SCA-2 compliant drive bays. The backplane is connected to channel A of the integrated
dual-channel, Ultra160 SCSI controller connector through a 16-bit LVD SCSI cable. If internal RAID support is required, this cable can be used to connect to a supported RAID
adapter rather than the integrated SCSI controller. No external SCSI port is included.
A two-drop, 16-bit LVD SCSI cable with integrated terminator is also included with the Netfinity Hot-Swap Power Supply Expansion Kit P/N 37L6881.This cable is included in the
expansion kit because installation of SCSI devices in bays A and B requires additional power. The two-drop cable supports up to two internal devices in these bays. This cable can be
attached to channel B of the integrated dual-channel Ultra160 SCSI controller or to a supported SCSI adapter.

1. Two half-high (HH) bays can be combined to support a single full-high (FH)
device. Installation of devices in Bays A or B may require Netfinity Hot-Swap
Power Supply Expansion Kit (P/N 37L6881) and at least one Netfinity 250 W Hot-
Swap Redundant Power Supply (P/N 33L37xx). Installation of HDDs in Bays A
and B also requires Media Bay Tray and LVD Cable Kit (P/N 10K2340).
2. Two slim-line (SL) bays (C/D, E/F, G/H) can be combined to support a single
half-high (HH) device.

1. Additional power may be required when installing a SCSI device in bay A or B. Configurations exceeding four SL hot-
swap hard disk drives and two PCI adapters require both Hot-Swap Power Supply Upgrade Kit P/N 37L6881 and at least
one optional 250 W Hot-Swap Redundant Power Supply P/N 33L37xx. Example: 3 SL HS HDD’s plus 5 adapters - no
additional power supply required. An optional SCSI cable is required. A two-drop terminated LVD SCSI cable is included
with both Media Bay Tray and LVD Cable Kit P/N 10K2340 and Hot-Swap Power Supply Upgrade Kit P/N 37L6881.
2. Media Bay Tray and LVD Cable Kit P/N 10K2340 contains a two-drop terminated LVD SCSI cable and the hardware
required to convert two half-high 5.25” removable media bays into two non-hot-swap 7200 RPM HDD bays.
3. Hot-Swap Power Supply Upgrade Kit P/N 37L6881 contains a hot-swap power backplane that supports installation for
up to three hot-swap power supplies.
4. Select an optional SCSI controller then refer to Appendix D: Cables-Storage Units-Controllers to confirm the controller
supports the desired External Storage Expansion Unit and to select a supported cable. For HDD or other expansion unit
options, see the specific expansion unit section.
5. Netfinity EXP200 includes a single 2 M Ultra2 SCSI cable and single hot-swap 350W power supply. Optional hot-swap
Netfinity EXP200 350W Redundant Power Supply (P/N 37L0075) provides redundancy.
6. EXP300 includes a single 2 M Ultra2 SCSI cable and dual hot-swap 500W redundant power supplies.
7. FAStT EXP500 Storage Expansion Unit (P/N 00N71xx) includes dual hot-swap 350W power supplies.
8. These units do not include Rack Power Cables P/N 94G7448 when shipped (for attachment to high voltage UPS or
PDU). Standard country power cords only are included. If required, order Rack Power Cables according to the number of
power supplies.
