I/OSPEEDWAY
INI-9100UW & INI-9100U:
PCI-UltraSCSI Bus Master Host Adapters


Overview:
Designed with high-performance multitasking and multimedia environments in mind, the Initio® I/OSPEEDWAY series PCI-UltraSCSI bus master host adapters deliver up to twice the performance of conventional Fast SCSI. I/OSPEEDWAY supports the latest Ultra SCSI and Ultra Wide SCSI peripherals at up to 40 MB/sec, and takes advantage of the 133 MB/sec burst rate of the PCI bus to provide unmatched I/O performance. I/OSPEEDWAY supports all popular operating systems including DOS® and WindowsWindows®95, Windows NT®, OS/2, SCO® UNIX®, UnixWare, Netware, Linux® and recently MacOS .

While I/OSPEEDWAY host adapters are capable of keeping pace with the most demanding applications, they offer complete compatibility with your existing SCSI peripherals. You can combine up to 15* SCSI-1, SCSI-2, SCSI-3, or Ultra SCSI peripherals for optimum performance and value.

I/OSPEEDWAY host adapters feature SmartSCSI, a user-friendly, BIOS-resident setup utility that allows individual device configuration and host adapter termination via the keyboard. The Initio Manager Set makes your SCSI software installation under DOS and Windows simple and painless.

The I/OSPEEDWAY host adapters include both auto-configuration and auto-termination for Plug-and-Play installations in PCI based systems. I/OSPEEDWAY host adapters will run in Intel and PowerPC compatible PCI systems.

Features:

The I/OSPEEDWAY series utilizes a unique PCI-SCSI engine integrated into a single chip to provide the highest performance while maintaining maximum compatibility with today’s and tomorrow’s peripheral products. The PCI-SCSI engine employs a distinctive Integrated Scatter/Gather Engine (ISGE) to provide more performance with DOS®/Windows®, Windows®95, Windows NT®, Windows for Workgroups®, OS/2®, SCO® UNIX, UnixWare,NetWare, and MacOS. All with exceptional overall value.

All Initio host adapters include DOS device drivers for CD-ROM, Magnetic Optical (MO)/removable media and a DOS format utility. MO drivers and format utility supports 512, 1K and 2K bytes/sector block sizes.

Comprehensive support includes the following devices: SCSI hard disk drives, CD-ROM drives, CD-ROM writers, rewritable optical drives, WORM drives, multi-function optical drives, floptical drives, printers, scanners, removable drives, DAT tape drives, QIC tape drives, 8mm tape drives, and others.

SmartSCSI’s unique menu driven interface makes setting up your SCSI bus simple and painless.
