Installing Mass Storage Devices
Before Installing
an IDE Hard Disk
Refer to the drive’s installation guide to see if you must set jumpers or if
there is a special installation procedure to follow.
Before Installing a
SCSI Hard Disk
If you are installing an additional SCSI drive, you should assign an
unused SCSI ID to this accessory. SCSI IDs range from 0 to 6 for Ultra
narrow 8-bit SCSI and from 0 to 15 for Ultra wide 16-bit SCSI. SCSI ID 0
is used by the first SCSI hard disk drive and SCSI ID 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 ID to the second SCSI hard disk drive
(for example, SCSI ID 1).
The SCSI ID 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 ID.
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.
