need to change SCSI id on 40MB drive

I have an upgraded cube with the 40MB Quantum "accelerator" disk.
Unfortunately, the SCSI id on this drive is apparently set to 6, contrary
to the documentation. That means that the logical drive number (i.e.
/dev/sd?[a-h]) assigned to it depends upon whether any other SCSI devices
are attached and turned on at boot time. The entry for this disk in
/etc/fstab, of course, is not automagically changed to match the boot-
time configuration, so you see the problem...
I'd like to set the drive's SCSI id to 2, but have no idea how to
change it (I have no drive manual for this one.) Would some kind soul
please send me a description of what I'm looking for on the drive and
which combinations of jumpers correspond to which SCSI id's? Please
reply directly to me.
Many thanks in advance.
