?What SCSI-based products are compatible with the FireSCSI Xpress? Are all SCSI devices supported? Will I need a firmware upgrade to support these and other types of SCSI products in the future?

A.The FireSCSI Xpress is compatible with a variety of SCSI devices which comply to the

industry SCSI standard (ANSI X3.131-1986 SCSI Standard). The FireSCSI Xpress works with removable media and fixed storage devices, (such as SyQuest, Zip, Jaz, Magneto Optical, hard drives, CD and CD recorders/re-writables), and a variety of scanners and other devices. However some devices which use proprietary SCSI controllers/connectors (certain scanners, and other devices) may not be compatible initially and may require updated drivers in the future or may not be compatible at all. You will not need to upgrade the firmware on your FireSCSI Xpress to support other types of devices, compatibility is augmented via simple software updates. Check our web site periodically for device and driver compatibility updates. It may also be helpful to contact or Technical Services Department in regards to compatibility questions.
