For information about the maximum length of SCSI cable between the terminated ends of the cable, refer to the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) SCSI standards. Adhering to these standards will help ensure that your server operates properly. Setting SCSI IDs: Each SCSI device connected to a SCSI controller must have a unique SCSI ID. This ID enables the SCSI controller to identify the device and ensure that different devices on the same SCSI channel do not attempt to transfer data simultaneously. SCSI devices that are connected to different SCSI channels can have duplicate SCSI IDs. The hot-swap-drive backplane controls the SCSI IDs for the internal hot-swap drive bays. However, when you attach SCSI devices to the external SCSI connector, you must set a unique ID for the device. Refer to the information that is provided with the device for instructions to set its SCSI ID.
