FT1200 HANDBOOK 4/11
Enable Disconnection
Sets whether the motherboard allows SCSI devices to disconnect
from the SCSI bus. Enabling disconnection allows the motherboard
to perform other operations on the SCSI bus while the SCSI device
is temporarily disconnected. If two or more SCSI devices are
connected to the host adapter, select
Yes.
The options are:
♦
Yes (default)
♦
No
Initiate Wide Negotiation
Specifies whether the motherboard attempts 16-bit instead of 8-bit
data transfer. Selecting Yes enables Fast/Wide SCSI-2 hard drives to
achieve their highest performance. Selecting No specifies 8-bit data
transfer unless the SCSI device requests wide negotiation.
The options are:
♦
Yes (default)
♦
No
BIOS Multiple LUN Support
Enables or disables support for booting from a SCSI device that has
multiple LUNs. Enable this option if your boot device has multiple
LUNs (e.g., multiple partitions on a hard disk). This field is ignored
if the Host Adapter BIOS is disabled.
The options are:
♦
Enabled
♦
Disabled (default)
Send Start Unit Command
Specifies whether the Start Unit Command is sent to a SCSI device
at boot. Selecting Yes reduces the load on the computer's power
supply by allowing the host adapter to start SCSI devices one at a
time. Most devices require you to set a jumper on the SCSI device
before it can respond to this command.
The options are:
♦
Yes
♦
No (default)
