※Note: Before connecting an additional expansion enclosure to an existing storage node, you must
use a flat screwdriver to set the ID knob on the expansion enclosure. Please note that each expansion
enclosure must be configured with a different ID. To prevent any ID conflict, it is recommended that you
set a separate ID for each expansion enclosure before deploying an environment with multiple
expansion enclosures.
