I just got my emax2 so I am not the expert on this yet, but from my understanding- All Emax 2 have SCSI from the factory, and if you are running the latest OS (2.14) you should be able to hook up a drive and then set the SCSI ID in the menu that you will boot from. Assuming your termination is correct, that should be it. If I am wrong, somebody please correct me.
