The SCSI ID is set using jumpers on a set of pins at the rear of the drive, as shown in figure 3. Use
tweezers or small pliers to move the jumpers to the pattern corresponding to the ID you want. Do not
remove the TP jumper. It should always be set.
NOTE:
Spare jumpers will be attached to the drive. The drive is supplied with compression

recommended. For further details, refer to the
StorageWorks Tape CD-ROM.
