.Sh CAVEATS
|
|
|
|
The Adaptec 174X is very sensitive to SCSI bus termination and cable
|
2003-06-28 23:53:39 +00:00
|
|
|
length.
|
|
|
|
It may also have difficulties operating with some modern devices
|
|
|
|
that, due to their speed, expose timing problems in the controller.
|
|
|
|
There are no known mechanisms for working around device incompatibilities of
|
1998-10-16 04:41:38 +00:00
|
|
|
this nature.
