Chapter 9: Saving to and Loading from Disk
== Change Power-On SCSI Search Delay ===
Power-on SCSI search delay (secs):30
(If no hard disk attached, enter 0 to
bypass delay at power-on.)
========================================
The single data field sets the amount of time that the SCSI port is
scanned when the power is turned on. By default, it is set to 30
seconds. To eliminate the power-on delay, change the field’s contents
to 0.
If you are using a hard disk and it is not being recognized by the
MPC3000 when the power for both devices is turned on simulta-
neously, then your hard disk may require more than 30 seconds to
spin up to operating speed. If so, try changing the value in this
screen to 45 seconds or longer.
Formatting a SCSI hard disk for the MCP3000
To format the external SCSI hard disk, turn power off for both the
hard drive and the MPC3000 and connect the hard drive to the
MPC3000’s SCSI port. (Warning: Never connect or disconnect
any SCSI device while power is on. This could seriously
damage both the device itself and the MPC3000.) Then turn
the power on to both the SCSI drive and the MPC3000. Next, press
the DISK key and select option 9 (Copy, format disk) from
the menu screen followed by option 3 from the subsequent menu.
The following screen will appear:
=========== Format Hard Disk ===========
Select hard disk type:SYQUEST
Formatting will erase all existing data
and divide the disk into 'partitions' of
less than 30 megabytes each.
========================================
<Next screen>
The field has two options: STANDARD and SYQUEST. If your drive
is a Syquest removable, select that option; if not, select STANDARD.
The screen warns that the hard disk’s storage space must be divided
into up to 26 partitions of no more than 30 megabytes each. These
partitions are called partition A, partition B, and so on. In each of
the save and load operations, you will be allowed to select which
partition to save to or load from.
