Use this software every time you attach new hard drives to the SCSI port. Adaptec supplied software on floppies only, which isn't particularly useful for computers without floppy drives. The company says it will soon ship software on CDs. You must get Orange Micro's software from its Web site. It's worth checking the company's Web site, as the software that ships with your card may very well be outdated.
Updates can solve speed issues and compatibility problems.
Tame Your SCSI Chain Installing a card is easy, but by nature SCSI can be a temperamental beast. Here's how to deal with some common problems. The Orange Micro cards do not come with formatters in the box. Adaptec also did not include any formatters with the PowerDomain 2930U or SCSI Card 2906, but the company says it will have added them by the time you read this. Unfortunately, not all the cards we tested were able to do this.
