4. Set the SCSI ID on each internal drive to a unique address between 0
and 15, but do not use address 7, as it is reserved for the controller. See
the documentation that comes with your drives for instructions on how
to do this.
m Caution
If internal and external drives are used, be sure that no
drive addresses are duplicated. External SCSI cabinets
usually automatically assign drive addresses
according to where in the cabinet the drives are
located.
5. Be sure termination is disabled on all drives connected to the
controller. See the documentation that comes with your drives for
instructions on how to do this.
6. Be sure that termination power is enabled on all drives connected to the
controller. See the documentation that comes with your drives for
instructions on how to do this.
7. Connect a wide, high-density, 68-pin SCSI ribbon cable to the internal
SCSI connector on the AcceleRAID 150 or 250 and connect the other
cable connectors to any internal SCSI drives as required. See Figure 5.
8. Connect an active terminator to the end of the SCSI ribbon cable at the
end farthest from the controller. See Figure 5.
