| CHS Not Applicable to SCSI and
Fibre Channel Disc Drives Why
In a SCSI subsystem, it is a function
of the host bus adapter (HBA) to provide a
translation of the drive's geometry for your operating system. Your SCSI or Fibre Channel
HBA's built-in BIOS
handles all I/O procedures, so you do not define the drive type in the system BIOS, and
you do not enter parameters for cylinders, heads or sectors.
What To Do
Set the CMOS parameter for the SCSI
drive to drive type zero or the "no hard drive installed" option. This is done
using the computer's CMOS setup routine, which enables you to define a new drive for the
system BIOS. |
