These HP Ultra3 drives can operate in either Single-Ended (SE) mode as Ultra
drives with a maximum bus data rate of 40 MB/sec or in Low-Voltage Differential
(LVD) mode as Ultra3 drives with a maximum bus data rate of 160 MB/sec. The
terminator on the cable, other drives on the bus, and/or the host controller card,
determines whether the drive runs in SE or LVD mode.
NOTE
For any drive to run in LVD mode, all SCSI components on
that bus must be in LVD mode.
