External SCSI ID

Syntho

6502
I have my external SCSI HD's ID number button thing set to ID #1 but it's still showing up as ID 0 in the System Profiler. Is that normal? And should I change my external drive's button to read 0?

 
Open the case and see if the dial switch harness is actually attached to the drive. Many times people upgrade these things and pull out the harness and forget to put it back on thinking that it is OK if it is still working.

It could also be misaligned on the connector.  Check that it's lined up to the ID pins and no other.
