Programming the Flash Memory
The ICP RAID controller normally comes ready to be installed into the computer
motherboard immediately. However, you may need to reprogram the RAID firmware that
is located in the flash memory of the ICP RAID controller.
There are 2 options for programming the firmware, Firmware Update or Firmware
Recovery. See

SCSI Termination
Termination is critical when connecting SCSI devices together. Connected SCSI devices
are typically called a SCSI bus, and termination is required at the each end of the SCSI
bus. Use a high-quality terminator at the end of the SCSI cable after the last device in the
bus to ensure proper termination.
The modular RAID on motherboard (MROMB) design lowers cost by utilizing the SCSI
controller and connectors that are integrated into the system's motherboard. With
MROMB, termination occurs on the host SCSI controller.
