∙Sync Rate [R] – Changes synchronous transfer rate from the default of 40 Mb/sec to 20 Mb/sec or 10 Mb/sec. Normally left at default for maximum performance, but can be changed on a device-by-device or bus basis.

∙Width (bits) [W] – Selects 16-bit (WIDE) or 8-bit operation. Can be left at 16-bit for all devices; adapter will negotiate correct width upon connection to each drive.

∙Disconnect [D] – Allows the drive to disconnect from the host adapter during transfers. Should be left enabled for maximum performance.

∙Read Write I/O Timout (secs) [T] – Timeout value host adapter will wait for a read or write to complete to the target device. Should be left at default of 10.

∙Scan for Device at Boot Time [S] – Enables host to scan for the target device at boot time. Disabling scanning of devices that are not on the bus can speed up the boot process. Default is enabled for all targets.

∙Scan for SCSI LUNs [L] – Enables host to scan for the Logical Unit Numbers (LUNs), which are sub-devices behind a single target ID. Disabling
