Guidelines for Installing SCSI Devices
The following guidelines apply for installing internal and external SCSI devices:
•
•
•
Set the drive to standby mode as directed by the operating system instructions
before adding or removing any SCSI drives.
The server supports Ultra3 SCSI types. Mixing other drive standards degrades
the overall performance of the drive subsystem.
Use drives with the same capacity to provide the greatest storage space efficiency
when the drives are grouped together into the same drive array.
