   Getting Started   
   ______________________________________________________   
      
   Introduction   
      
   The SCSI architecture allows a variety of devices to coexist   
   on a SCSI bus, linked to the host computer with an adapter.   
   The Adaptec SCSI card provides a standard hardware interface   
   which supports major types of SCSI peripherals.   
      
   The Advanced SCSI Programming Interface (ASPI) provides a   
   protocol for SCSI device drivers and programs to submit I/O   
   requests to host computer systems.  The ASPI manages host   
   adapter resources and provides the hardware independent ASPI   
   for SCSI application and device drivers.  Installation of   
   different adapters to the system differs between operating   
   systems.   
      
   SCSIMODE is a hardware/software interface that allows the   
   user in the field to change SCSI mode parameters and perform   
   basic SCSI functions on the IBM SCSI disk drives. The   
   following drives are supported:   
      
                        0661          (Lightning/Turbo)   
                        0663          (Corsair I/Corsair II)   
                        0663E         (Corsair II Enhanced)   
                        0664          (Allicat S10/Allicat S20)   
                        0662          (Spitfire)   
                        DFHS/DFMS     (Starfire)   
      
   SCSI drives other than the ones listed above can also be   
   used.  They will be recognized by the program as "Generic"   
   drives.  The mode parameters on generic drives may not   
   correspond to the supported drives.   
      
   Requirements   
      
   IBM PC/XT/AT/PS2 compatible computer with at least 640K RAM.   
   A SCSI controller with ASPI support or an IBM SCSI Adapter.
