Hello,
I am trying to connect a tape library (HP MSL 2024 AG115A) to my HBA card (Adaptec 29320A ultra320 scsi) on my server.
At the incorrect advice of someone on another forum, I purchased HP part 110941-001. The wide end fits onto both the tape drive and the HBA, but the VHDCI end doesn't, because I don't have that kind of connector. So it appears I need a HD68 to HD68 cable.
I am now looking for the correct cable on ebay but don't understand everything.
1-Is HD68 the same thing as HPDB68?
2-Both of my devices say "LVD" on the port, the tape drive in addition says "SE", does this affect the type of cable required?
3-Is there such thing as a "regular HD68 cable" and a "LVD HD68 Cable"?
4-If I buy a cable that just says HD68 M/M like this:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/6-SCSI-Cabl...t=US_Drive_Cables_dapters&hash=item35ad9ddb0e
or
http://www.ebay.com/itm/10ft-HD68-6...t=US_Drive_Cables_dapters&hash=item4d0f598a8d
...will that work with my devices?
I want to get the right cable this time so please help me.
Thanks
