Two Devices per SCSI Bus
To ensure maximum performance, one device per SCSI bus is the recommended configuration for
LTO–3 and LTO–4 drives.
If adding a second device for configurations using a single SCSI bus.
1.
Unplug the SCSI cable from device 1.
2.
Pass the end of the cable through internal chassis openings.
3.
Plug the end port into device 2.
4.
Then plug the middle port into device 1.
NOTE:
The SCSI terminator is at the end of the cable and should be behind device 2.
