SCSI Guidelines for Installing
SCSI Devices
If you are installing a narrow SCSI device, you will need to attach a
68-to 50-pin SCSI adapter to the narrow SCSI device.
A maximum of seven SCSI devices may be installed on each channel.
Each channel of the integrated Dual Wide-Ultra SCSI or Wide-Ultra2
SCSI PCI (on select models only) controller requires that a unique SCSI
ID (0-6 and 8-15) be set for each SCSI device installed.
Before you install a SCSI device, verify the SCSI ID of the drive and, if
necessary, set the SCSI ID to a unique ID number.
The controller identifies a SCSI device by its SCSI ID (SCSI ID 1)
number rather than its bay location (bay 2). Therefore, moving a SCSI
device from one bay location to another or changing the position of the
device on the SCSI chain does not affect the communication between the
controller and the SCSI device.
The reserved and available SCSI ID numbers for SCSI devices are as
follows:
1
2
5-device Wide-Ultra SCSI cable
Wide-Ultra SCSI cable
and optional 2-device
