Connecting A Backup Scsi Device To The Current Scsi Device; Changed Format Function - Fostex D-160 Addendum

3. Connecting a backup SCSI device to the current SCSI device

To use another SCSI device as a backup drive, connect two SCSI devices in chain as shown below. There is no
restriction regarding which device comes first. However, be sure to install the terminator on the second SCSI
device (the device at the end of the chain). Refer to the "Notes on setting the SCSI ID number of the SCSI device
(IMPORTANT!!)" section on the previous page for more information on setting the ID number of each SCSI
device.
