Enclosure configuration
In this section, configurations are determined by the SCSI bus configuration.
Your enclosure ships with the single-bus module installed. Follow these
procedures to set the switches and jumpers, and connect the SCSI data cables.
JBOD - 12 drive configuration
The enclosure can be set up as a single-bus (default) or a dual-bus JBOD (Just
a Bunch of Drives) configuration using a single enclosure which provides up
to a 12-drive storage solution.
