SCSI Parity

 

Configuration

Indicates whether SCSI parity is enabled for an

 

 

[Yes/No]

 

adapter. When disabled, it is also necessary to

 

 

 

 

disable disconnects for all devices, as parity checking

 

 

 

 

for the reselection phase is not disabled. If a

 

 

 

 

non-parity generating device disconnects, its

 

 

 

 

operation will never complete because the reselection

 

 

 

 

fails due to parity error.

 

 

 

 

Host SCSI ID

 

Configuration

Indicates the SCSI identifier of an adapter. It is

 

 

[0 to 7 / 0 to 15]

None indicates no removable media support whether

 

 

 

 

the drive is selected as first (BBS), or is first in the

 

 

 

 

scan order (non-BBS).

 

 

 

 

Boot Drive Only provides removable media support

 

 

 

 

for a removable hard drive if it is first in the scan

 

 

 

 

order.

 

 

 

 

With Media Installed provides removable media

 

 

 

 

support regardless of the drive number assignment.
