Setting the SCSI ID and termination

The drive is shipped with a SCSI ID of 0. If you want to change the default ID,
install the jumpers on the jumper block ( 3 in Figure 2-1) for the desired ID, as
shown in Figure 2-2. (If necessary, use flat-nose pliers to remove the jumpers.) If
you need an additional jumper, use a 2 mm jumper.

enable termination power, place a jumper across the far right pins on the auxiliary
connector. Make sure the jumper is firmly in place. Be sure to use a 2 mm jumper.
