Ultra-3 SCSI Channel B up to 5** Up to 5 SCSI hard disk drives (addresses = ID 0, 1, 2, 3, 8) Embedded SCSI controller (address = ID 7) * A 50-to-68-pin SCSI adapter is provided with the HP tape drive. ** Both SCSI channels (A and B) can each support up to 15 devices; however, there are only enough internal storage shelves for five hard drives and one optional tape backup device. Channel A is used to control external SCSI devices or internal backup tape. Installing Hard Disk Drives WARNING Always wear a wrist strap and use a static-dissipating work surface connected to the chassis when handling components. Ensure the metal of the wrist strap contacts your skin. The flexible disk, CD-ROM, and optional disk do not have protective shields; they are ESD sensitive. Caution must be taken when removing them to avoid electrical shock. Install and remove connectors carefully, and avoid displacing any of the pins. 16
