DC-310 series SCSI Adapter Quick Reference Guide (rev 2.2)
Tekram Technology Co., Ltd
1
Introduction
The DC-310 series has two adapters:
DC-310U
, an
Ultra-SCSI
adapter based on the
Symbios Logic SYM53C860 SCSI Chip, and
DC-310
, a
Fast SCSI-2
adapter based on
SYM53C810 SCSI Chip. Designed to provide a low cost, easy to implement SCSI solution,
this adapter utilises the built-in Symbios Logic SCSI BIOS (SDMS BIOS version 4.x) on
supported mainboards, such as Tekram P5 VX/TX and P6/Pentium_II series.
Fully Plug & Play and PCI 2.1 compliant, enhanced SCSI features include
Disconnect/Reconnect
,
Scatter/Gather
, and
Tag Queuing
to greatly improve overall system
performance, particularly under multitasking environments.
Jumper-less hardware design
,
Active SCSI Bus Termination,
and
32-bit PCI DMA Bus
Mastering
are a few more of the advanced features built-in to the DC-310 series adapters,
providing the best performance and ease of use possible
.
