Referring to my copy of MaxTor's XT-8000S OEM manual, I find the following:

The auxilliary connector shown above as [:::.:] (nice ASCII graphics)
has the following pin assignments (expanded picture)

	pin 9	pin 7	pin 5	pin 3	pin 1
	Gnd	-Wrt	-LED	(key)	+LED
		Protect

	pin10	pin 8	pin 6	pin 4	pin 2
	ID0	ID1	ID2	Gnd	(open)

ID0,ID1,ID2 are the bits of SCSI ID, with weights 1, 2, and 4, respectively
So you could change from SCSI ID=0 to SCSI ID=1 by putting a jumper between
pin 9 and pin 10.  However, this is not the standard method.  See below
for more information.

The rest of the pins have the following functions:
	pin 7: connect to ground to disable writing on the disk

	pin 5 and pin 1: connect an LED here to perform the same
		functions as the LED on the drive faceplate


Back to the SCSI ID:

	On the main circuit board of the drive you will find 3 jumpers
labeled JP35, JP36, and JP37.  They too control SCSI ID0, ID1, and ID2.
Jumper in for a 1, out for a 0.  They are actually in parallel with the
pins on the auxilliary connector.
