By software/controller I was referring to the setup software and/or the
SCSI interface "controller" card for the machine. Not the controller
imbedded in the drive itself. And was meaning that in order to correctly
format the drive, one must make sure that the SCSI ID of the drive must
match the ID that the software is expecting.

Sorry if there was any confusion.
