Task Alert message Page Mounting Installation 5-12 Damage 1. Be careful of the insertion orientation of the SCSI connectors. With the system in which terminating resistor power is supplied via the SCSI cable, if the power is turned on, the overcurrent protection fuse of the terminating resistor power supplier may be blown or the cable may be burnt if overcurrent protection is not provided. When the recommended parts listed in Table 4.2 are used, inserting the cables in the wrong direction can be

CHAPTER 1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION 1.1 Standard Features 1.2 Hardware Structure 1.3 System Configuration This chapter describes the feature and configuration of the MAS series intelligent disk drives (IDD). IDDs are high performance large capacity 3.5 type fixed disk drives with an embedded SCSI controller. The MAS series disk drives support the Small Computer System Interface (SCSI) as described in the ANSI SCSI SPI-4 [T10/1365D Rev.7] to the extent described in this manual. The flexibility and expa

1.1 Standard Features (1) Compactness Since the SCSI controller circuit is embedded in the standard 3.5 type fixed disk drive form factor, the IDD is extremely compact. The IDD can be connected directly to the SCSI bus of the host system. (2) SCSI standard The IDD provides not only SCSI basic functions but also the following features: • Arbitration • Disconnection/Reconnection • Data bus parity The SCSI commands can manipulate data through logical block addressing regardless of the physical cha

Note: The maximum data transfer rate in asynchronous mode may be limited by the response time of initiator and the length of SCSI bus length. The maximum data transfer rate in synchronous mode may be limited by the cable length, transmission characteristics of the SCSI bus and the connected SCSI device number. (5) Continuous block processing The addressing method of data blocks is logical block address. The initiator can access data by specifying block number in a logically continuous data spa

(8) Command queuing feature The IDD can queue maximum 128 commands, and optimizes the issuing order of queued commands by the reordering function. This feature realizes the high speed processing. (9) Reserve and release functions The IDD can be accessed exclusively in the multi-host or multi-initiator environment by using the reserve and release functions. (10) Error recovery The IDD can try to recover from errors in SCSI bus or the disk drive using its powerful retry processing. If a recovera
