The system is designed for plug and play which offers a jumperless
configuration of SCSI ID, automatic SCSI termination, and automatic system
recognition. The storage cage has a capacity of four 1.6-inch disk drives or six
1.0-inch disk drives which is pre-configured at the factory.
The SCSI ID for disk drives is preset on the backplane with the lowest ID to
the left for a vertically installed storage cage and from the bottom of a
horizontally installed cage. Table 5-2 shows the orientation of the SCSI IDs
for a vertically installed storage cage (both the 4-slot and 6-slot storage
subsystems).

NOTE: Tape devices added to the spare removable media bay must have their SCSI ID set
on the device to avoid conflict with other drives.
