SCSI confusion

From: Wood, Lawrence N (LWood@ALLEGROMICRO.com)

Our intent is to attach an Overland LoaderXpress Tape autoloader with
one LTO-2 Ultrium tape drive(LVD) to a SunFire V440 Server. The
specifications for the V440 state that among the "Standard Integrated
Interfaces"
is "One Ultra320 SCSI (LVD)". I have confirmed that the system has four
Hitachi 73 Gig LVD hard drives installed internally and apparently nothing
else on the SCSI bus. There is a DVD-ROM installed but it appears to be a
Toshiba IDE device. The rear panel of the V440 does have a High Density
68-pin jack but it is not part of the PCI expansion rack which leads me to
believe the LVD interface is part of the motherboard. Can you positively
confirm that this autoloader can go on our machine without adding another
SCSI card?

Your assistance would be appreciated.
