Hot-plug SCSI hard drive options
When adding SCSI hard drives to the server, observe the following general
guidelines:
• A maximum of 14 SCSI devices per channel can be added.
• Each SCSI drive must have a unique ID. The system automatically sets all
SCSI IDs.
• The SCSI ID for each hot-plug hard drive is set automatically to the next
sequential ID number in a series beginning with ID0.
• If only one SCSI hard drive is used, install it in the bay with the lowest
number.
• Hot-plug hard drives must be either Wide Ultra2, Ultra3, or Ultra320 SCSI
types. Mixing these types with other drive standards degrades the overall
performance of the drive subsystem.
• Drives must be the same capacity to provide the greatest storage space
efficiency when drives are grouped together into the same drive array.
