* For DC-395UW: Press <Tab> to see the next screen for SCSI ID 8-15, if available.
* For DC-395U: "Wide Negotiation" is always set to “No” and cannot be changed.
Allow Disconnection: Yes/No. Yes is the default option and allows a SCSI device to go off-
line, thereby freeing the SCSI bus when performing multi-tasking operations. In this way, the
DC-395 can simultaneously process multiple operations on the SCSI bus and thus improve
efficiency in a multiple device environment.
Send START UNIT Command: Yes/No (default). Some specific drives require additional
spin-up commands to start their motors during system initialization. These devices would
require that this setting be set to Yes. However, most drives will spin up their motors
automatically during power up, and would not require the START UNIT Command. Some
drives have a jumper to enable/disable this option.
