2.1.5
QAS
Enable or Disable (Default: Enable).
Quick Arbitration and Selection provides increased overall system performance by
allowing arbitration to occur without incurring the overhead of intervening BUS
FREE phases, saving up to microseconds per operation. This is significant when
compared to the 1.6 microseconds it takes to transfer each 512-byte sector of data
at 320MB/sec. Rather than waiting for a BUS FREE phase, a target may initiate
arbitration by issuing a QAS REQUEST message. The devices on the bus may
"SNOOP" the message and participate in the arbitration. QAS can only be enabled
if information unit transfers are enabled.
Because of ACS7485 (LSI53C1030T SCSI chip) had some compatible issue with
other HBA vendor, so F/W had created a QAS menu item to avoid this issues.
