#5705 #5705 PCI-X Tape/DASD Controller
The #5705 PCI-X Tape/DASD Controller provides SCSI Ultra4 PCI attachment capability for external tape devices, external
removable media devices, and internal DASD devices. There are two SCSI buses on each #5705. Each SCSI bus has both
an internal port and an external port for a total of four ports on the card. Each SCSI bus can have only one attachment,
either internal or external. Attaching internal and external devices to the same SCSI bus causes the internal device to
become disabled.
The internal SCSI port supports up to six disk units, but does not support RAID. If two external SCSI ports are required, a
#5702 should be ordered.
The external port can support the following devices:
3580-L23 IBM TotalStorage Ultrium 2 Tape Drive

3583-Lxx IBM Ultrium Scalable Tape Library, LVD Ultrium 2 drive feature
