Hardware Installation
Introduction
The AcceleRAID 160 is a versatile single channel PCI to Ultra 160 SCSI,
Low Voltage Differential (LVD) RAID controller with many possible
hardware configurations. This quick installation guide assumes that the user
is familiar with controller, disk drive, and RAID terminology.
Performing an Installation
☛Note
A PCI 2.2 compliant slot is required to operate the
AcceleRAID 160 controller. However, a PCI 2.1
compliant slot that supplies 5V power is acceptable.
WARNING
To avoid electrical shock, do not attempt to
perform this hardware installation with the power
on. Disconnect the system from the electrical wall
outlet.
PCI Hot Plug
Please refer to Appendix C in the AcceleRAID 160 PCI to Ultra 160 SCSI
RAID Controller Installation Guide for instructions on how to use the PCI
Hot Plug feature.
Manual No. DB11-000021-00 1
Performing an Installation
Connectors, LEDs, and Jumpers
There is one external and one internal connector supported on the
AcceleRAID 160 controller. The locations of the SCSI connectors are sho wn
in Figure 1 and Figure 2 and are labeled as CH 0.
There are two types of brackets: Standard PCI bracket (Figure 1) and Low
Profile PCI bracket (Figure 2).

Hardware Installation
Installing the AcceleRAID 160 into a Standard Chassis
If your system has a 2U chassis, please go to “Installing the AcceleRAID
160 into a 2U Chassis” on page 9.
Caution
Be sure to wear a ground wrist strap at all times.
☛Note
If the controller has the Low Profile Bracket attached,
replace it with the Standard PCI bracket for this
installation.
1. With the power off, plug the AcceleRAID 160 controller into an
available 32-bit PCI slot on the system board (see Figure 5); the 32-bit
slot is short.

2. Set the SCSI ID on each internal drive to a unique address between
0 and 15, but do not use address 7, as it is reserved for the controller.
See the documentation that comes with your drives for instructions on
how to set the SCSI ID address.

Caution
If internal and external drives are used, be sure that
drive addresses are NOT duplicated. External SCSI
cabinets usually automatically assign drive addresses
according to the drives’ location in the cabinet.
Manual No. DB11-000021-00 5
Performing an Installation
3. Be sure termination is disabled on all SCSI drives connected to the
controller. See the documentation that comes with your drives for
instructions on how to do this. (T ermination must be enabled on the last
device, if not using an active terminator.)
4. Be sure that termination power is enabled on all SCSI drives connected
to the controller. See the documentation that comes with your dri ves for
instructions on how to do this.
Connecting Internal SCSI Devices
5. If you are installing internal SCSI devices to the controller, connect a
wide, high-density, 68-pin SCSI ribbon cable to the internal SCSI
connector on the AcceleRAID 160 controller and connect the other
cable connectors to any SCSI devices as required (see Figure 6).
Termination is automatic on the AcceleRAID 160.
6. Connect an active terminator to the last device at the end of the SCSI
ribbon cable (see Figure 6).

Connecting External SCSI Devices
7. If you are installing external SCSI devices to the controller,
individually or in an external drive cabinet, connect a cable, with the
68 pin VHDCI, to the external SCSI connector on the AcceleRAID 160
controller. Connect the other end of the cable connector to other
devices or to a SAF-TE external drive cabinet, as required
(see Figure 7).
8. External drive cabinets usually have termination built into the end of
the SCSI bus. Check the documentation that comes with your drive
cabinet to be sure this is the case. If not, use an active terminator at the
end of the bus.
☛Note
AcceleRAID 160 termination is enabled by default,
but will be automatically disabled if necessary.

Performing an Installation
Connecting Both Internal and External SCSI Devices
A combined installation showing internal and external devices with proper
termination is illustrated in Figure 8.
☛Note
A combined configuration using both internal and
external connectors works best with high quality
cables. It is recommended that you use an
Amphenol® Fast LVD an d a Hitachi ® twisted pair,
flat cable in this unique setup.

Hardware Installation
Installing the AcceleRAID 160 into a 2U Chassis
You may need to check the manufacturer’s installation instru ctions for your
particular 2U chassis.
Caution
Be sure to wear a ground wrist strap at all times.
☛Note
If the controller has the Standard PCI bracket
attached, replace it with the Low Profile PCI bracket
for this installation.
1. Choose the riser adapter with an available PCI slot. In this case, it is
presented on an angle, as shown in Figure 9.
2. Plug (install) the controller board firmly into the 32-bit PCI slot, and
snap it into place, as shown in Figure 9.

Connecting Internal SCSI Devices
6. If you are installing internal SCSI devices to the controller, connect a
wide, high-density, 68-pin SCSI ribbon cable to the internal SCSI
connector on the AcceleRAID 160 controller and connect the other
cable connectors to any SCSI devices as required (see Figure 11).
Termination is automatic on the AcceleRAID 160.
7. Connect an active terminator to the last device at the end of the SCSI
ribbon cable (see Figure 11).

8. If you are installing external SCSI devices to the controller,
individually or in an external drive cabinet, connect a cable, with the
68 pin VHDCI, to the external SCSI connector on the AcceleRAID 160
controller. Connect the other end of the cable connector to other
devices or to a SAF-TE external drive cabinet, as required
(see Figure 12).
9. External drive cabinets usually have termination built into the end of
the SCSI bus. Check the documentation that comes with your drive
cabinet to be sure this is the case. If not, use an active terminator at the
end of the bus.
☛Note
AcceleRAID 160 termination is enabled by default,
