All Macs I've worked with have the internal drive set to SCSI 0, also the CD
is almost always 3. So pick a jumper combination which isn't
open-open-open or open-close-close or close-close-open
(depending on which way you're looking at the jumpers...)
A good one that uses only one jumper might be open-close-open (scsi 2).
btw, many Mac drives have thumbwheels rather than jumpers...
