1.2.0.1 Dual-drive emulation configuration
Dual-drive emulation is a jumper setting on the options jumper block—
see Figure 3 on page 18 for Type A drives or Figure 4 on page 20 for
Type B drives—that allows you to configure the drive as two logical
drives. Each logical drive is assigned a drive type in CMOS and is
partitioned and formatted. When dual-drive emulation is used, a second
physical drive cannot be used on the controller.
