Possibly.  It’s set for ID 0, which is fine.

SCSI bus termination is a bit of a black art.  You could try moving the jumper 
one place to the right (from TE to PK) to remove termination.  PK (probably 
short for “park”) is a dummy position for storing a spare jumper.

To select SCSI IDs, you just need to make sure every device on the same bus has 
a unique ID.  The SCSI controller itself uses ID 7.  Usually the primary 
internal drive is given ID 0, so that it is scanned first.  CDs are usually set 
to 3 or 6, but check this or simply disconnect them for troubleshooting.

So it doesn’t particularly matter what ID an enclosure is set to - the 
enclosure itself doesn’t occupy or enforce an ID.  Usually the dial on the 
outside of an enclosure is connected to the ID pins so you don’t have to fiddle 
with jumpers yourself.

If you really do want ID 5, you need to put jumpers on the rightmost and 
third-from-right pins (A0 and A2).  It’s probably easier to select IDs 1, 2, or 
4 by putting your single jumper on A0, A1, or A2 respectively.  Or use your 
enclosure’s selector after connecting it properly.  You could also try 
connecting the enclosure's activity LED (if there is one) to the pins just to 
the left of TE, where your jumper is now.

The other potential problem is: you don’t show it with a power plug.  Giving a 
drive power usually helps with getting it recognised.  You should be able to 
hear it spin up.
