Always make sure that power is not connected to the StorPoint CD or
any of the CD-ROM drives when making changes to the SCSI chain.
The SCSI bus may become damaged if you connect or disconnect any
units when the power is on.
Connecting the

To connect the SCSI drives to the StorPoint CD, follow these steps:
1. Connect the SCSI cable to the SCSI connector on the StorPoint
CD.
2.
Connect the SCSI cable to the CD-ROM drive(s).

drive documentation for instructions on how to set the SCSI
address.
