How to Install Accessories In Your HP Visualize Linux Workstation Installing Mass Storage Devices Before Installing a SCSI Hard Disk If you are installing an additional SCSI drive, you should assign an unused SCSI address to this accessory. SCSI addresses range from 0 to 7 for Ultra narrow 8-bit SCSI and from 0 to 15 for Ultra wide 16-bit SCSI. SCSI address 0 is used by the first SCSI hard disk drive and SCSI address 7 is reserved for the integrated SCSI controller (the default for narrow and wide SCSI devices). NOTE You do not need to select a SCSI address for Plug and Play SCSI hard disks (SCSI hard disks that support the SCAM protocol). You should assign an unused SCSI address to the second SCSI hard disk drive (for example, SCSI address 1). The SCSI address is usually configured with jumpers on the SCSI hard disk drive. Refer to the installation guide supplied with the drive for information on selecting a SCSI address. Some internal SCSI disk drives may have termination resistors that must be removed or disabled before installation in your computer. Refer to the drive's installation guide for more details and to see if there is a special installation procedure to follow. Chapter 2 35

Before Installing a
SCSI Hard Disk
If you are installing an additional SCSI drive, you should assign an
unused SCSI address to this accessory. SCSI addresses range from 0 to 7
for Ultra narrow 8-bit SCSI and from 0 to 15 for Ultra wide 16-bit SCSI.
SCSI address 0 is used by the first SCSI hard disk drive and SCSI
address 7 is reserved for the integrated SCSI controller (the default for
narrow and wide SCSI devices).
NOTE
You do not need to select a SCSI address for Plug and Play SCSI hard
disks (SCSI hard disks that support the SCAM protocol).
You should assign an unused SCSI address to the second SCSI hard disk
drive (for example, SCSI address 1).
The SCSI address is usually configured with jumpers on the SCSI hard
disk drive. Refer to the installation guide supplied with the drive for
information on selecting a SCSI address.
Some internal SCSI disk drives may have termination resistors that
must be removed or disabled before installation in your computer. Refer
to the drive’s installation guide for more details and to see if there is a
special installation procedure to follow.
