CHAPTER 1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION 1.1 Standard Features
1.2 Hardware Structure
1.3 System Configuration
This chapter describes the feature and configuration of the intelligent disk drives (IDD).
IDDs are high performance large capacity 3.5 type fixed disk drives with an embedded SCSI controller.
The MAT series disk drives support the Small Computer System Interface (SCSI) as described in the ANSI
SCSI SPI-4 [T10/1365D Rev.10] to the extent described in this manual.
The flexibility and expandability of the SCSI, as well as the powerful command set of the IDD, allow the
user to construct a high-performance reliable disk subsystem with large storage capacity.
The data format can be changed from the format at factory shipment by reinitializing with the user's system.
Refer to SCSI Logical Interface Specifications for details.
