Disk Configuration

This command allows the user to control writeback cache and Self-Monitoring And Reporting

Technology (SMART) settings for all the disks at once. Changes take effect at the next rescan

or reboot. To change the writeback cache setting for individual drives, use the Drive Utilities

Menu. Refer to section "Drive Utilities Menu" for further information.

Writeback Cache

This feature allows the user to modify the setting for the drive's writeback cache setting. This

can be set to ENABLE, DISABLE, or DON'T TOUCH (default setting).

SMART

This feature allows the user to modify the setting for SMART drives. This can be set to ENABLE,

DISABLE, or DON'T TOUCH (default setting).

Option Configuration Menu

The Option Configuration Menu allows the user to change the following:

Cache Lock

Battery

Enable Trust Array

Cache Lock

This command allows the user to prevent host systems from using SCSI mode select

commands to change the controller's writeback cache setting. If enabled, the host cannot

modify the cache setting. Default setting is OFF. This option is useful in some environ-ments

where the host system disables the controller's writeback cache, resulting in degraded

performance.
