you can disable the SCSI-BIOS. This saves 16 Kbytes of system memory and
saves time starting the system.
!
Warning
If the SCSI BIOS is disabled, you cannot boot up from the SCSI devices
connected to the SCSI bus.
If you disable the SCSI BIOS, you can still call SCSI Setup using the
Ctrl

keys when starting the system and make changes.
Enabled
The SCSI BIOS is activated (default setting).
Disabled
The SCSI-BIOS is deactivated.
Note
Remember that you must install special SCSI drivers for your SCSI devices if
you disable the SCSI BIOS.
If you enable this function, you can treat removable disk drives such as MO
drives just like fixed disk drives without having to install additional software.
Boot Only
Only the selected boot removable disk drive is treated like a
fixed disk drive (default setting).
Alls Disks
All removable disk drives supported by the BIOS are treated
as fixed disk drives.

need special drivers for the removable disk drives as they are
not supported by the BIOS.
