Understanding SCSI Installing Multiple SCSI Cards You can install multiple SCSI cards in your computer. You are limited only by the available system resources (for example, IRQ settings, I/O port addresses, and so on). Each SCSI card you install forms a separate SCSI bus with a different set of SCSI devices. Each SCSI ID can be used once on each SCSI card. (For example, each SCSI card can have a device with SCSI ID 2 but SCSI ID 2 appears only once on each card.) If you have two or more SCSI cards, enable the BIOS on the boot SCSI card only; disable the BIOS on the remaining SCSI cards. A-5
