Compatibility of SCSI-2 and SCSI -3
I have HP surestore RAID with SCSI-2, I have to interface with SCSI - differential. I want to know whethre this is possible.

I believe you will find that it will work but it will operate at the slow rate

HP surestore RAID device requires scsi-2 wide differential controller. My question is will it accept SCSI -3 differential controller?
Maybe you should modify your question? I'm confused as to exactly what you are asking.
Going by your last comment, the answer is no. SCSI-3 differential (Low Voltage Differential) is different than SCSI-2 differential. You can't mix and match them.
So you still need to use the correct SCSI-2 differential controller (and they are very expensive).

As long as the device is not an HVD(high voltage differential) you should be ok.
SE, LVD and SE/LVD devices will work with that controller.
Unless your equip is old devices in the modern PC environment are no HVD
