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.
