2 Medalist Pro 2160N, Rev. B Handling precautions Disc drives are extremely fragile. Do not drop or jar your drive. Keep the drive in its antistatic bag until you are ready to install it. Protect your drive from static discharge by making sure you are well grounded before touching the drive. We recommend wearing a grounded wrist strap throughout the installation process. Do not touch the connectors or any part of the printed cir- cuit board. Always handle the drive by its edges or frame. Do not

Medalist Pro 2160N, Rev. B 3 SCSI ID jumpers and drive termination Setting the SCSI ID Your SCSI drive is configured at the factory as SCSI ID 0 (no jumpers installed). If you are installing only one drive or if this will be your boot drive, the drive should be configured as SCSI ID 0. Each device on the SCSI chain must have a unique SCSI ID. If you are installing a second hard drive, choose the next available ID. SCSI ID 7 is usually reserved for the SCSI host adapter. Figure 1 on page 4 shows
