I have my routines now and can show the SCSI bus (HA) and devices, and some
of the devices come back as claimed. No problem, but how can I work out the
"name" for the claimed device, e.g. Tape0 etc.?

I write scsi command functions separately then use whatever
transport is available. The ASPI & SPTI scsi transports require
knowing the data transfer direction of the scsi command being
sent.

Who makes a good workstation mainboard with built-in Ultra320??  I need to
upgrade.
Thanks,

The external DDS-4 autoloader I bought recently is a LVD/SE device. I
have a U2W cable from the drive to the computer, but the cable from the
onboard Adaptec U2W connector (the mobo is an Asus P2B-LS) to the
case-mounted connector probably isn't up to U2W spec. (it's flat ribbon

I wonder if you could help a SCSI newbie out please.
I am having problems with my DELL Powervault 132T (robotic tape
library and drive) and have been advised by Veritas to change my SCSI
ID's.

I've seen "pass-through" terminators/adapters advertised (e.g., Part#
CC688IE-FF at
http://www.qvs.com/scsi-int_adaptor.asp
but I can't figure out what use they are. Wouldn't using one of these

What is the latest firmware for this device?
Latest firmware on adaptec support site:
I20 bios is 1.62, those anyone know for unofficial firmware!
I mean for 2940UW is on official site 2.20, but i have 3.10 (unofficial) :))

I would like to have my Dell PERC4 work in windows XP, since it is not
supported by the dell on that platform, I was thinking of flashing it
with the LSI firmware.
Has anyone tried? Does/Should it work?

I'm a newbie about SCSI controllers and hard drives but I haven't found
any answer in the newsgroups and over the net.
I've got a SCSI-3 hard drive with a 68pin connector and a controller
card with a 50pin connector, so I think that it is a SCSI-2 controller card.

I'm trying to read data off two HDs removed from a Perkin-Elmer OS/32
system. I'm using an Adaptec 2940AU card, and an inexpensive program
called DiskSpy from www.miray.de. This setup works fine when I use it
to examine an old Macintosh disk, a PC-formatted JAZ cartridge, or a

We purchased a disk/tape backup appliance from a vendor that shall
remain nameless.  The appliance is a linux box with a SATA RAID
array and a SCSI LTO-2 tape drive. When we installed it we found that
we could backup our unix systems to the disk array but could not write

I have to change an Adaptec Raid 5 controller with 48MB RAM by a LSI
Raid 5 controller with 256MB RAM on a Fujitsu-Siemens RX300 server.
The server's OS is Windows 2000 Server SP4
This server is the Domain Controler of the network.

I need information about SCSI to USB Converter . I have a computer
with Magneto Optical Disc connected through SCSI interface. But MODs
are usually unreliable and expensive . I want to replace MOD by any
USB device (USB Stick etc) ( i.e. need to convert SCSI interface to

I'm upgrading some old tape libraries from Ultra SCSI Narrow (50 pin) to
Ultra SCSI Wide (68 pin).  Both are HVD.
Obviously, I need to replace all of the cabling.  If I use the proper
HVD terminator, can I use a LVD "rated" internal cable ?

I just got a Dell PERC4 (rebranded LSI 320-1) RAID adapter, and I'm
somewhat surprised of the performance of a simple RAID 0 with 3x73gb
15k.3 seagate drives.
Under complete RAID 0, I can get a Winbench 99 transfer rate of about
