The basic host adapter settings are the SCSISelect settings most likely to require modification:

Host Adapter SCSI ID — This option sets the host adapter’s SCSI ID. The default setting is 7, which allows the host adapter to support narrow SCSI devices in addi- tion to wide SCSI devices. Dell recommends that you leave the host adapter set to SCSI ID 7.

SCSI Parity Checking — This option determines whether the host adapter veri- fies the accuracy of data transfer on the SCSI bus. Most SCSI devices support SCSI parity, so the default is Enabled. You should disable SCSI Parity Checking if any SCSI device connected to the host adapter does not support SCSI parity. If you are unsure if a device supports SCSI parity, consult the documentation for the device.

Host Adapter SCSI Termination — This option sets termination on the host adapter. The default for the Adaptec AIC-7860 host adapter is Enabled; the default for the AIC-7890 and 2940U2W host adapters is Enabled. Dell recom- mends that you leave this option set to the default.
