12 Barracuda 4LP Installation Guide, Rev. B General description Barracuda 4LP SCSI disc drives are high-speed, random-access digital-data storage devices. The drive is a component for installation in an enclosure designed for the drive. This is often a rack within the system or an external enclosure designed to house one or more disc drives or other peripheral units. In either case, the disc drive must receive adequate cooling (refer to “Providing adequate cooling”) and it must be sufficiently

The host system’s SCSI controller usually uses the ID that has the highest priority interrupt in the SCSI I/O system. This is always ID7. ID0 is lowest priority in an 8-bit I/O system. ID8 is lowest priority in a 16-bit I/O system. The lower priority SCSI IDs are normally used for other SCSI devices such as this Barracuda disc drive. Note. Most SCSI controllers (host adapters) al
