SCSI Device Configuration Screen

 

 

 

 

 

The SCSI Device Configuration screen lists the current device settings for each SCSI ID,

 

even if the ID is not assigned to a device.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If you do not know the SCSI ID of the device you want to configure, press <Esc> until

 

the Options Menu displays, and then select the SCSI Disk Utilities option. A list of SCSI

 

devices and their SCSI IDs displays. Note the ID of the device you want to configure

 

and then return to the SCSI Device Configuration screen.

 

 

 

 

 

SCSI DEVICE

The settings for each SCSI device on the SCSI bus can be modified individually as

Initiate Sync Negotiation

Synchronous negotiation is a SCSI feature that allows the SCSI adapter and its attached SCSI devices to transfer data in synchronous mode. Synchronous data transfer is faster than asynchronous data transfer.
