Using your Oak SCSI
winchester
In use, the SCSI filing system behaves as a normal Archimedes filing
system, (e.g. ADFS), and is operated from the desktop in exactly the
same way. The icon on the icon bar for the SCSI winchester appears as
a standard winchester icon with the legend SCSI, and the drive number
below.
Clicking menu on the SCSI icon brings up a menu of 4 items:
Name disc
This option allows the name of the winchester to be changed. To
change the name of the winchester, wipe across the namedisc option
and either edit the current name or delete and retype it. Note that you
must not have 2 SCSI winchesters with the same disc name, as this
confuses the operating system.
Dismount
This option closes files, unsets directories and parks the heads of the
winchester. (N.B. Oak Winchesters have autoparking heads so this
option is normally only used for making sure that all files are closed.)
Verify
This option checks that the entire disc is readable.
Free
This option displays the amount of used and unused space on the
winchester.
