Using a CD-ROM Drive
Should you need to install a CD-ROM, the Array1000SA Family
Manager Set drivers diskette included with the AAA-13xSA RAID
card contains the DOS and NetWare driver software you need in
order to use a CD-ROM controlled by the AAA-13xSA RAID card.
This appendix explains how to set up your CD-ROM drive so that
you can initially install your software.
Using a CD-ROM Drive with DOS
To operate a CD-ROM drive supported by the AAA-13xSA RAID
card under DOS, you need
■
The SCSI driver,
aspi8dos.sys
(version 1.32 or later)
■
The CD-ROM driver,
aspicd.sys
■
The Microsoft CD-ROM extensions,
mscdex.exe
The
aspi8dos.sys
and
aspicd.sys
files must be copied from the
\dos
directory on the Adaptec Array1000SA Family Manager Set driver
diskette to a directory (e.g.,
c:\scsi
) on your hard disk drive. The
mscdex
.
exe
file is included with MS-DOS 6.x and above (see your
MS-DOS documentation for details).
Note:
If you use MS-DOS 5 and do not have
mscdex.exe
, we
recommend that you upgrade to MS-DOS 6 or above. You
can also obtain
mscdex.exe
from Microsoft’s Web site,
online bulletin board, or CompuServe forum.
