Hi D.

Check this doc.

Converting SCSI From Simplex to Duplex RP4640

http://tinylink.com/?okaTmbugZ1

Can't find a specific doc for the RP4440.

Best regards,

Hi,

you must buy the following kit:

A9740B SCSI backplane conversion to duplex

and read the doc:

"hp 9000 rp4440 Installation Guide" - page 59

Note if you use duplex internal SCSI you lose the SCSI external connections.

Naturally, you can always add another SCSI card if you needed the port.
