•
Host Adapter BIOS (Configuration Utility Reserves BIOS
Space)
-(Default:
Enable
d) Enables or disables the SCSI card
BIOS.
• Leave at
Enabled
to allow the SCSI card BIOS to scan and
initialize all SCSI devices.
• Set to
Disabled: Not scan
if the devices on the SCSI bus
(for example, CD-ROM drives) are controlled by software
drivers and do not need the BIOS, and you do not want
the BIOS to scan the SCSI bus.
• Set to
Disabled: Scan Bus
if you do not need the BIOS,
but you want it to scan the SCSI devices on the bus and
you need to spin up the devices.
The following four options have no effect when the SCSI Card
BIOS is disabled. (The SCSI Card BIOS is normally enabled by
default.)
•
Domain Validatio
n—(Default:
Enable
d) Determines the optimal
transfer rate for each device on the SCSI bus and sets transfer
rates accordingly. Displays the resulting data transfer rate.
•
Support Removable Disks Under BIOS as Fixed Disk
s—
(Default:
Disable
d) Determines which removable-media drives are
supported by the SCSI card BIOS. Choices are as follows:
• Disable
d— No removable-media drives are treated as hard disk
drives. Software drivers are required because the drives are not
controlled by the BIOS.
• Boot Onl
y—Only the removable-media drive designated as the
boot device is treated as a hard disk drive.
• All Disk
s—All removable-media drives supported by the BIOS
are treated as hard disk drives.
Caution: You may lose data if you remove a removable-media
cartridge from a SCSI drive controlled by the SCSI
card BIOS while the drive is on. If you want to be able
to remove the media while the drive is on, install the
removable-media software driver and set Support
Removable Disks Under BIOS as Fixed Disks to
Disabled
.
