Only the Fast/Wide SCSI interfaces on the 3000 are high-voltage
differential.  The rest are plain old slow/narrow/single-ended, which IIRC,
are actually compatible with LVD drives (which will cease to be differential
when plugged into a single ended SCSI chain).  Then again I don't claim to
be a SCSI expert, so maybe I'm remembering wrong.
