Connecting Methods
5.1 Interface Cable (Daisy Chain)
Note 1. The SCSI bus can accommodate a maximum of 16 units on a WIDE (16-bit) bus,
including the host processor, Ultrastar 15K73 units, and other SCSI devices.
Note 2. The WIDE LVD and SCA-2 LVD drives do not have the terminator on the drive, so
an external terminator is required.
