It is strongly recommended that you switch the Maximum Sync
Transfer Rate to 20 MB per second when connecting an external
SCSI device.
•
Enable Disconnection
To optimize SCSI bus performance, Enable Disconnection should be
set to
Yes
.
•
Initiate Wide Negotiation
This option determines whether the SCSI channel attempts 16-bit
data transfer instead of 8-bit data transfer.
•
Send Start Unit Command
When set to
Yes
this option reduces the load on your computer’s
power supply by allowing the interface to power-up SCSI devices
one-at-a-time when you start your computer.
This option is not supported by some SCSI devices. Some SCSI
devices require a jumper to be changed before they can respond to
this command.
•
BIOS Multiple LUN Support
More advanced SCSI devices can have several logical units (LUN).
This option determines whether booting a SCSI device that has
multiple LUNs is supported. Set this option to
Yes
if your boot device
has multiple LUNs. It is set to no by default.
•
Include in BIOS Scan
This setting, when set to
Yes
, allows the SCSI device to be controlled
by the host adapter with this SCSI ID. When set to
No
, the adapter
does not control the SCSI device.
