Introduction

Ultra320 SCSI on the Adaptec SCSI Card

39320D

The Adaptec SCSI Card 39320D enables you to connect up to 30

SCSI devices—such as very large arrays of high-performance hard

disk drives, external storage subsystems, Ultra320/160, or Ultra2

hard disk drives, scanners, and CD-ROM drives—to any Intel-

based computer with 64- or 32-bit PCI/PCI-X expansion slots.

Ultra320 is an enhanced SCSI technology that transfers data at up

to 320 MB/sec. Ultra320 SCSI allows cable length of up to 12

meters for optimal connectivity and flexibility.1

Adaptec SCSI Card 39320D User’s Guide for Floppy Disks (OEM)

The Adaptec SCSI Card 39320D has two independent SCSI

channels, each with a maximum throughput of 320 MB/sec.

■SCSI Channel A—(marked CH A on the card) has one internal

connector and one external connector.

■SCSI Channel B—(marked CH B on the card) has one external

connector.

For the bestdata I/Operformance, connectonly LVD (Low Voltage

Differential) devices and LVD cables to the Adaptec SCSI Card

39320D. (LVD devices means Ultra 320, Ultra160, and Ultra2 SCSI

devices.) If you connect non-LVD devices (for example, Fast SCSI

or Ultra SCSI devices), we recommend that you connect them to

SCSI Channel B. This allows you to operate LVD SCSI devices at

their maximum speed on Channel Awhile at the same time using

non-LVD SCSI devices on Channel B.

Althoughthe Adaptec SCSI Card 39320D isa 64-bit PCIcard, italso

works in a 32-bit PCI slot. When installed in a 32-bit PCI slot, the

card automatically runs in the slower 32-bit mode.

This User’s Guide provides information about using the Adaptec

SCSI Card 39320D and SCSI devices, troubleshooting, SCSI

termination, and other important topics. It explains how to use the

built-in SCSISelect®utility if you need to change the Adaptec SCSI

Card 39320D settings. It also explains how to install the software

device drivers for your operating system.

Note: Read the Adaptec SCSI Card 39320D Installation Guide if

you need instructions on installing the SCSI Card and

connecting SCSI devices to it.
