To use the internal disk array drives in a disk array configuration by
installing the Mylex AcceleRAID 160 disk array controller on the low-
profile riser card, disconnect the SCSI cable from the system board and
the SCSI backplane.  Instead, connect them with the provided SCSI
cable for a disk array configuration.  The SCSI cable connected in the
standard configuration is not long enough.  See "Example of
connecting the SCSI cable" below.

! 

Some disk array controller boards have more than one channel
(connector).  They may have connectors for internal connection and
external connection.  However, the connectors may be under exclusive
specification in consideration of the internal connection of the disk
array controller board.  Make sure that each connector (channel) is for
internal connection or external connection.  For the connectors and
channels, see the manual provided with the disk array controller board.

Example of connecting the SCSI cable

This section explains the procedure for connecting the internal hard disk drives to the
Mylex AcceleRAID 160 disk array controller board installed on the riser card dedicated
to low-profile PCI boards.

Form the provided SCSI cable for a disk array configuration according to "Forming of
the SCSI cable."

Remove the FAN bracket, lifting up the front of the bracket.

 Remove the bracket while making sure that the signal cable from

the power supply unit that runs through the slit on the left side of the
bracket is not caught.
