The following four options have no effect when the SCSI host bus adapter
BIOS is disabled. (The SCSI host bus adapter BIOS is normally enabled by
default.)
• Domain Validation—(Default: Enabled) Determines the kinds of SCSI
devices connected and reduces data transfer speed when legacy SCSI
devices are detected. Displays the resulting data transfer rate.
• Support Removable Disks Under BIOS as Fixed Disks—(Default:
Disabled) Determines which removable-media drives are supported by
the SCSI host bus adapter BIOS. Choices are as follows:
Disabled— No removable-media drives are treated as hard disk drives.
Software drivers are required because the drives are not controlled by the
BIOS.
CAUTION
You may lose data if you remove a removable-media
cartridge from a SCSI drive controlled by the SCSI host
bus adapter BIOS while the drive is on. If you want to be
able to remove the media while the drive is on, install the
removable-media software driver and set Support
Removable Disks Under BIOS as Fixed Disks to
Disabled.
Boot Only—Only the removable-media drive designated as the boot
device is treated as a hard disk drive.
All Disks—All removable-media drives supported by the BIOS are
treated as hard disk drives.
• BIOS Support for Bootable CD-ROMs—(Default: Enabled) When set
to Enabled, the SCSI host bus adapter BIOS allows the computer to boot
from a CD-ROM drive.
• BIOS Support for Int 13 Extensions—(Default: Enabled) When set to
Enabled, the SCSI host bus adapter BIOS supports Int 13h extensions as
required by Plug-and-Play. The setting can be either enabled or disabled
if your system is not Plug-and-Play.
