General Information on Installing Drives
This section covers general drive installation information, including internal and external
SCSI drives, external SCSI, and cable layouts.
SCSI Addresses (SCSI ID’s)
Before installing a SCSI device, you must either set or verify the setting of the device’s
SCSI address (SCSI ID). The SCSI controller chip is normally assigned device ID 6.
Digital recommends that you use Table 3-1 as a guide for the selection of an address for
your SCSI drive.
