.
NOTE:
Drive SCSI cables are labeled “A”, ”B”, ”C”, and ”D” on the drive end to indicate the drive
location. Drive SCSI cables are labeled ”0”, ”1”, ”2”, and ”3” on the interface controller
end to indicate the SCSI port location. The most efficient order for making these connections
is as follows:
1. Connect a SCSI cable from drive A to port 0 on the interface controller.
2. Connect a SCSI cable from drive B to port 1 on the interface controller.
3. Connect a SCSI cable from drive C to port 2 on the interface controller.
4. Connect a SCSI cable from drive D to port 3 on the interface controller.
NOTE:
Clusters are numbered sequentially from 0 to 5, with 0 at the top of the cabinet, just below
the card cage.
a. Gently tighten the screws to secure the cable to the drive port using a slotted screwdriver.
