Installing SCSI Devices The Compaq Deskpro 6000 Series of Personal Computers features an embedded Ultra-SCSI host adapter that supports up to seven internal and external SCSI devices. Deskpro 6000 models come with an internal SCSI hard drive preinstalled. Additional high-performance SCSI devices can be added to all Deskpro 6000 models. Guidelines for Installing Optional SCSI Devices When installing additional SCSI devices, you must adhere to the following guidelines: s A SCSI host adapter supports up to 7 SCSI devices. s Every SCSI device must have a unique identification (ID) number (0 - 7). The SCSI host adapter identifies signals to and from a SCSI device by its SCSI ID number rather than its location. Moving a SCSI device from one position to another on the SCSI chain does not affect the communication between the controller and the SCSI device. The reserved and available SCSI ID numbers for SCSI devices are as follows: t 0 is reserved for the hard drive. t 1 through 4 are available. t 5 is reserved for a CD-ROM drive. t 6 is available. t 7 is reserved for the SCSI host adapter.
