Product: HP Pavilion p7-1020 Desktop PC
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)

I am looking to buy a SCSI controller that is compatible with my HP Pavilion computer.  

Motherboard is: Foxconn 2ABI      PCI 2.0   

I am looking for a specific controller that will work or suggestions how to figure out what SCSI controller is compatible with my computer.   Need a 68 pin connector on the controller for an external tape drive.

Thank you in advance.

 

Note:  I am attempting to attach an HP Ultrium 448 Tape Drive to my computer.  This is 68 pin.  I have old tapes that I need to attempt to read for archived information.

I advise you to ask for help in the HPE community
It might be possible to install a pci adapter

but not knowing this material at all

You may not get an answer here, or we risk telling you nonsense.

Adaptec made some earlier model cards that have pci and 68 pin connectors, search on ebay here's a quick list of cards that will support tape units with various bus interfaces

I personally recommend LSI

lsI is now part of broadcom, however these drivers are found everywhere on the internet

 

LSI: (PCI) most systems use this 

LSI00025

 

https://www.amazon.com/LSI-Logic-LSI00025-68-Pin-Controller/dp/B0007NOUGU

 

LSI: (PCIE-X)  most workstations/servers use this

LSI22320-R

hi

HP Pavilion p7-1020 Desktop PC

https://support.hp.com/my-en/document/c02863020

  • 1 PCI Express x16 slot for graphics card
  • 3 PCI Express x1 slots
  • 1 PCI Express x1 minicard slot

did I see wrong?

https://harddiskdirect.com/aha2940u2b-adaptec-scsi-controller.html


Where do you connect this pci card?

 

there are already many links in pci 1x, if it is not suitable, I strongly advise you to ask professionals for this type of material
