SCSI Wide/Narrow Configuration (DDS-4 Drives Only)
Switch 9 enables SCSI Wide or Narrow operation. By default, switch 9 is set to ON, enabling SCSI
Wide (16-bit) operation. To enable SCSI Narrow (8-bit) operation, set switch 9 to the OFF position.
This allows the DDS-4 drive to terminate the upper byte of the SCSI bus.

After you review and, if necessary, change the drive’s default settings, record the drive information.
That way, you can reference this information in the future, without having to gain access to the drive
inside your computer.
