Internal SCSI Drives (Type 8640)



Internal SCSI Drives

The server supports small computer system interface  (SCSI) drives. You can attach multiple SCSI drives to the preinstalled SCSI-2 adapter.

If you install additional SCSI devices in a non-disk-array model, you must set a unique identification (ID) for each SCSI device that you connect to the SCSI-2 Fast/Wide PCI-Bus adapter, so that the SCSI-2 adapter can identify the devices and ensure that different devices do not attempt to transfer data at the same time.

The SCSI IDs in disk-array models with the SCSI-2 Fast/Wide PCI-Bus Adapter are hard-coded in the backplane of the hot-swap bay and preset for the CD-ROM drive. Do not attempt to change the SCSI IDs for internal SCSI devices on disk-array models .

Refer to 'Table 1' before setting SCSI IDs. Do not set the SCSI IDs for other devices to these values.

NOTE: Any information about SCSI drives also applies to other SCSI devices, such as scanners and printers.
