RX2600 U320 SCSI card

[Jesse Dougherty]

has anyone ever used or know of a third party U320 SCSI adapter for use on an HP Itanium Integrity RX server. I see that HP offers the U160 cards (A6828A) but I cant seem to find any info on U320 Mass storage adapters.

Any info would help.

Hi Jesse,
1) rx2600 has buil in dual channel U320 scsi controller, mainly for internal disks, one of the channels has external U320 port

2) you can use PCI U320 adapters:
- A7173 2 channel U320 SCSI adapter

The information here is correct. There are a few errors on the first link that John pointed to, which are being resolved. Another link for A7173A is http://www.hp.com/products1/serverconnectivity/storagesnf2/ultra320/index.html
