The Synchronous Offset represents the number of bytes a SCSI ACK signal may lag a REQ signal. 16 (10H) is the maximum Offset allowed. Although communications allow up to a 16 byte offset, each byte is always acknowledged. For additional information, see the SCSI-2 specification.

The 0(*O0(7(5displays the transfer rate in megabytes per second. Because transfer rates vary considerably moment to moment, the rate shown is actually the average of transfer rates for a two-second period. This averaging yields a more accurate representation of the overall transfer performance.
