1.7 About SCSI

Be aware of the following issues before using SCSI devices.

(1). SCSI ID: Each device attached to the SCSI host adapter must be assigned a

unique SCSI ID, which distinctively identifies a SCSI device for its data transfer

and processing.

While connecting more than one SCSI devices, each device should have a different

ID number.

For Ultra2 Wide SCSI interface, the selectable SCSI ID is from 0 to 15. But 7 is

usually reserved for the SCSI adapter.

(2). Terminator: SCSI is featured with high scalability. In order to ensure reliable data

transmission on the SCSI bus, a terminator should be installed at the end of the

bus.

No matter how many SCSI devices (up to 15) are attached to the bus, a terminator

must be added to the last device.
