Set the SCSI ID number for the hard disk drive

Choose a SCSI ID number (0 to 6) for the drive. Choose a
1.
number that is different from any SCSI ID numbers noted
in the
column of the display.
DEV
Read the device codes that you wrote down. In the
a.
example,
Choose any number from 0 to 6 that is not the same as
b.
the numbers in the device codes. In the example, we
can choose 0, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6, because the only number
in the device codes is 1. In this example, assume that
we chose 2.
Write down the new number on the same paper where
c.
you wrote the device codes.
Use a pair of needle-nose pliers to set the SCSI ID on
2.
the drive that you are installing. Set the ID to the new
number that you chose by arranging the SCSI switches
or jumpers to indicate the number. Jumpers are small
rectangular collars that fit over the ID pins on drives and
other components. If your drive uses jumpers, the jumpers
are already on the pins, and you have to arrange them
appropriately.
In Appendix D, Figures D-1 through D-7 show how to
arrange the jumpers on each hard disk drive. They also
show the connectors for the power supply and SCSI cables.

Fasten the hard disk drive in the system unit

Look inside the drive bracket on the front drive panel.
1.
If the end of the SCSI cable is fastened to the drive
bracket with a tie-wrap, cut the tie-wrap.
If the power supply cable and SCSI cable are tucked
inside the bracket, pull them out carefully.
If there is a drive in the drive bracket, leave the cables
attached to the drive.
