    Jumpers All SCSI controllers require a unique SCSI ID (0–15) for each SCSI device installed. The controller identifies a SCSI device by its SCSI ID number rather than its location. Moving a SCSI device from one position to another on the SCSI chain does not affect communication between the controller and the device. The reserved and available SCSI ID numbers are displayed in the following list: 0 is reserved for the primary hard drive (not reserved for the primary hard drive on Linux).
