Warning:

"first" and "third" can be confusing. The jumper pins are binary representing 
values 1,2, and 4. They may be labelled A1, A2, and A4 or A0, A1, and A2 
depending on what the circuit board designer had for lunch. The first and third 
in that sense would result in SCSI identifier 5.

"master" and "slave" usually refer to the two possible identifiers in IDE or 
ATA disk busses.

Manufacturers of disk drives are very good about having manuals available on 
their web sites. It's worth a look.
