Note: SCSI models include an Ultra160 SCSI controller with a five-drop multi-mode terminated LVD SCSI cable. Single-ended devices attached to this cable will limit the entire SCSI bus
to single-ended performance. SCSI tape drives and external tape enclosures are supported by PCI Wide Ultra160 SCSI Adapter (P/N 19K4646) which includes a five-drop multi-mode
LVD SCSI cable and an external 0.8-mm VHDCI connector.
1. To determine cable requirements, note the tape drive’s SCSI interface, the appropriate SCSI controller from the system configurator section, and the desired enclosure, then refer to
Appendix D: Cables - Storage Units - Controllers.
2. SCSI models include a two-drop EIDE cable for attachment to the CD-ROM and an IDE tape drive. Model 8478-22X includes 10/20GB TR5 Internal IDE Tape Drive (P/N 20L0549).
3. This single-ended device will limit the SCSI bus to which it is attached to Ultra SCSI speeds. To provide a dedicated tape SCSI bus, install PCI Wide Ultra160 SCSI Adapter (P/N
19K4646) which includes a five-drop multi-mode LVD SCSI cable.
4. RAID configurations (SCSI models only) where the standard SCSI cable is attached to a RAID adapter require the two-drop multi-mode terminated LVD SCSI cable included with
Media Bay Tray and LVD Cable Kit (P/N 10K2340) in order to connect tape drives to the standard PCI storage controller.
5. SCSI tape drives installed in EIDE models require optional PCI Wide Ultra160 SCSI Adapter (P/N 19K4646) which includes a five-drop multi-mode LVD SCSI cable.
6. Requires 68-pin External Multimode LVD/SE SCSI Terminator (P/N 00N7956).
7. LVD support for LVD devices installed in a NetMEDIA Storage Expansion Unit EL (P/N 3551001) requires replacement of the standard single-ended internal cables with one or more
(depending on configuration) cables from Media Bay Tray and LVD Cable Kit (P/N 10K2340), which contains a single two-drop multi-mode terminated LVD cable. If the standard cables
are used for attachment to LVD devices, single-ended SCSI rules and bus speeds apply.
8. Provides a black desktop 133mm (5.25in) half-high (HH) tape enclosure. Connector is configurable as 50-pin Centronix or 68-pin high density. Requires either tape drive self
termination or 68-pin External Multimode LVD/SE SCSI Terminator (P/N 00N7956).
9. NetMEDIA Storage Expansion Unit EL (P/N 3551001) is a black 3U, 19in rack mountable tape enclosure which includes two full high (FH) or four half high (HH) extended length 133mm
(5.25in) bays, two external 68-pin high density connectors and two internal four-drop single-ended terminated 16-bit SCSI cables for device attachment. Two power supplies and two
power cords are also included. Tip: The front rail clips will need to be reversed and screwed in from behind to secure the unit in a 930842x rack.
10. NetMEDIA Systems Management Adapter (P/N 10L7113) may be installed in a 3551001 to provide repeater function, LVDS interface, aggregate cable lengths up to 12 meters when
attached to an LVD SCSI controller, and auto-termination when the 3551001 is powered off. External connector is 0.8mm VHDCI.
11. Not supported in machine type 8479 models.
Note: Additional tape attributes can be found in Appendix A: Tape Drive Attributes.
