Checking the Hard Disk Drive Model Number and Firmware
Revision Level
When any of the following disk drives are attached to the SecuRAID 112
(Mylex AcceleRAID 160) controller, their transfer speed may be restricted to
80MB/sec if their SCSI firmware is below the minimum revision shown:
Disk Drive Model
Minimum
Firmware
Revision
ST39204LC 6
ST39204LW 6
ST39236LC 10
ST39236LW 10
ST318404LC 6
ST318404LW 6
ST318436LC 10
ST318436LW 10
ST336704LC 4
ST336704LW 4
The SCSI interface transfer rate and the drive model and firmware revision can
be determined by using the Mylex RAID EZAssist, accessed by typing ALT/R
during system POST, or by using the Mylex GAM utility. If your drive does not
meet the minimum firmware revision shown in the above table, set the drive
transfer rate to 80MB/sec and call your service representative. Refer to the
Mylex documentation for more information.
