This option determines the order in which PCI devices are scanned by the system, and it allows you to select the built-in SCSI controller or an optional PCI expansion- card SCSI controller as the boot device. The options are:

‡Embedded Devices First

‡Slots First (H/L) (the default)

‡Slots First (L/H)

When the internal SCSI drives are connected to a SCSI controller on the system board, select Embedded Devices First to boot from these drives.

When the internal SCSI drives are connected to a PCI RAID controller, select Slots First to boot from these drives. If the PCI RAID controller is in slot 6, select High/Low. If the controller is in slot 1, select Low/High.
