SCSI Select is the SCSI configuration utility. SCSI select is used for configuring embedded
SCSI controllers and devices connected to the SCSI controllers. Features provided using this
utility include the option of reassigning the designation of channel A and B, verify or modify
SCSI host adapter settings, to low-level format SCSI disks, or verify SCSI media.
To invoke SCSI Select, during the system boot process press Ctrl+A when prompted.

High Voltage Differential SCSI devices are not supported on the embedded SCSI bus. The
devices will be damaged if connected to the embedded SCSI bus.
