OVERVIEW
In the fast-growing server and workstation marketplace, higher levels
of performance and integration are required to stay competitive. As a
result, data accessibility and the subsequent performance of the I/O
subsystem are paramount. To meet these market demands, LSI Logic developed
the LSI53C896 controller. This highly integrated single-chip solution provides
compute and data intensive designs a full featured SCSI solution for embedding
on the mainboard or as a host adapter.

SDMS SOFTWARE FOR THE LSI53C896
Most high-performance storage subsystems require hardware, firmware
and software components to create a total I/O solution. To be of value, the
solution must interoperate across the wide range of operating and computing
systems available. It is for this reason SDMS
鈩?/div>
software supports the
LSI53C896 to provide a complete high-performance SCSI I/O solution.
SDMS software has been certified for, and in most cases bundled with, lead-
ing operating systems. Likewise, the LSI logic BIOS is easily integrated and
coexists with popular industry system BIOS offerings as well as providing
boot capabilities for nontraditional boot devices like CD-ROMS.
