I found a nice website explaining the different types of SCSI, it's at: http://www.cablingdirectory.com/techinfo/scsiinfo/scsi.htm
Check if you can find a small symbol next to the connector on the SCSI card indicating what type of SCSI it is. The LVD and HVD/Differential symbols differs (see the webpage for a picture).

Let me first say this: I'm not a SCSI expert! The difference between LVD and HVD SCSI is hardware related. LVD, which stands for Low Voltage Differential, is also called Ultra 2 or Fast-40 SCSI. It uses 3 volt instead of 5 volt logic level and is not directly compatible with the "old" differential (HVD) SCSI. LVD doubles SCSI data throughput. Cable lengths are 12 m (40 ft). Single initiator-single target applications may use up to 25 m (82 ft) of cable. I don't know if there is a way you can physically see if you have a LVD or a HVD drive or card. As far as I know the SAN Data Gateway comes with 4 HVD connectors by default. The LVD adapter is a separate feature (FC 2840).

Is it related to the SDG's hardware, or just a question of microcode ? Could you please give us some informations ? Thanks in advance.
