Apple Workgroup Server 6150/66 - Manual (Page 53)

Connecting a SCSI device
To connect a SCSI device to your server:
1 If your server is turned on, shut it down.
2 Make sure the SCSI device is switched off.
3 Make sure the device has its own, unique ID number between 0 and 6.
See the previous section, “Setting the SCSI ID Number,” for details.
4 Use a SCSI cable to connect the device either to the server’s SCSI port or to the last
SCSI device already in the chain.
If the device is the first or only one you’re connecting, use a SCSI system
cable to connect it to the server’s SCSI port.
If the device is not the first one, use a SCSI peripheral interface cable to
connect it to the last device in the chain.
IMPORTANT To get the best results with SCSI devices, be sure to use high-
quality SCSI cables and check that the total length of the cables in a SCSI
chain does not exceed 6 meters (20 feet). Use SCSI cables manufactured by
Apple Computer or those of similar quality.
WARNING Do not connect or disconnect any device while the device or
your server is turned on. Doing so could damage the device, your server,
or both.
