erratic scsi speeds

by njaneardude-30601088 . Updated 23 years, 7 months ago

SCSI Guru’s please help : )

The equipment:

ASUS P3C-S MB, onboard Adaptec AIC-7892 SCSI controller

(3) Fujitsu MAN3367MP
http://hdd.fujitsu.com/global/drive/man3xxx/jumper.html#1.1
(1) Quantum Atlas III 318000TD-SW
http://www.maxtor.com/en/documentation/pdf_jumper_settings/atlas_iii_jumpers.pdf

The setup as it POSTS:

SCSI ID’s
4, 5, 6 = Fujitsu drives
10 = Quantum
7 = controller

The problem? Transfer speed.
It sometimes shows up as:
160-80-10 (Fujitsu) and 80 for theQuantum or sometimes
160-80-ASYNC and 80 for the Quantum

I have the Quantum at the end of the SCSI chain, the other end terminating on the motherboard.

I have no idea how to get all of these at 160! I have the 3 Fujituss setup as a RAID 5 and the Quantum as a SWAP in Windows 2000.

Going crazy…any ideas?

TIA
