The Indigo2 uses Fast SCSI hard drives. This disk is show mounted on an Indigo2 drive sled, which mates with the drive bay. The sled's connector carries power and drive ID in addition to SCSI data. The orange ribbon cable connects to the drive's ID jumper pins to set the drive's ID. The ID for each bay is fixed.
