The "main" SCSI drive in a Mac is "0" and each drive must have a different number. There are pins on the drive to change the ID. You place a little jumper on the pins. Sometimes the block of pins is labled, sometimes it even will say SCSI or ID. Sometimes it is a bit more obscure and labeled with something like J21. You can go to the manufacturer's website and find the location of the block that corresponds to your drive.
