Configuring the SCSI Bus
4English
SCSI Device
Configuration Menu This menu lets you configure parameters for each SCSI device on the
SCSI bus. To configure a specific SCSI device, you need to know which
SCSI ID it uses. To know the SCSI ID of a specific SCSI device, you can
run the SCSI Disk Utilities (refer to page 7).
Use the and keys to move between options. Press to
display a menu with a selection of values.
•Initiate Sync Negotiation
Some older SCSI-1 devices do not support synchronous negotiation.
Set Initiate Sync Negotiation to No for these devices.
•Maximum Sync Transfer Rate
If the SCSI device is an UltraWide SCSI device, you can use the
maximum value of 40.0 MB per second. For Ultra narrow SCSI or
Wide SCSI devices you can select a maximum transfer rate of 20.0
MB per second.
Certain older SCSI-1 devices do not support UltraWide SCSI (up to
40 MB per second) or Ultra narrow SCSI or Wide SCSI data transfer
rates (up to 20 MB per second). Select a Maximum Sync Transfer
Rate of 10.0 MB per second for these devices.
