Note:
The BIOS must be enabled if you want the computer
to boot from a SCSI hard drive attached to the host adapter.

Host Adapter SCSI ID

Defines the SCSI ID (0-15) setting for the host adapter. The default
is 7, which is the recommended setting. Each installed SCSI device
must have a unique SCSI ID.
Note:
If any SCSI device is connected to the 50-pin internal
SCSI connector, the host adapter SCSI ID must be assigned a
value that ranges from 0 to 7.

SCSI Bus Parity Check

Enables or disables SCSI bus parity checking on the host adapter.
The default is Enabled. The host adapter always generates parity
when writing to the SCSI bus. If any attached SCSI devices do not
support SCSI parity checking, then SCSI Bus Parity Check should be
disabled. Most SCSI devices do support SCSI parity checking.

SCSI Selection Timeout

Defines the time, in milliseconds, the host adapter waits to respond
during the SCSI Selection phase. The default is 256 milliseconds.
Lowering the SCSI Selection Timeout will speed up SCSI bus scans
considerably; however, before lowering this value, make sure that
all the devices on the SCSI bus can respond to the shorter selection
time.

SCSI Bus Reset at Power-on

Enables or disables a SCSI bus reset generated by the host adapter
during its power-on initialization, and after a Hard Reset. The
default is Enabled.

SCSI Bus Termination

Configures host adapter termination. Refer to Terminating the SCSI
Bus on page 8 for appropriate settings.
