LSI Logic is providing the enclosed Storage Device Management
System (SDMS) 4.0 drivers electronically for your convenience.
SDMS is a trademark of LSI Logic Corporation.
While the files are provided to you, it does not imply technical
support on the part of LSI Logic should any problems arise during
the use or operation of these drivers. For the following reasons,
LSI Logic highly recommends that you contact either the place where
you purchased your system or the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM)
of your system's motherboard for technical issues pertaining to SDMS.
Please note the following information:
* LSI Logic works with its OEM customers to correct any
anomalies that may occur within the complex interaction
of the operating system, driver, BIOS and hardware. Your
OEM is most aware of these interactions and would be the
one most capable of diagnosing a problem and, if necessary,
working with LSI Logic to correct it. It is the experience
of LSI Logic that what appears to be a LSI Logic SCSI problem
often is not and is indeed a system or software installation
problem.
* By contacting the OEM for support, you will be assured of
receiving the latest SDMS BIOS and drivers that have been
verified, certified, and licensed by your OEM on that OEM's
hardware platform.

This file describes the features and use of the LSI Logic SDMS device
drivers for the Windows 2000 operating system environment. SDMS drivers
contain the same filename for different Windows operating systems. The
driver files are packaged either in separate subdirectories based on the
Windows operating system or on different flex disks.
To determine the driver file for Windows 2000, note that the filename ends
with ".sys". For example, SYMC8XX.SYS. (The same is true for Windows NT 4.0)
To determine the operating system version, go into Windows Explorer,
display the driver file, right click on the filename, click on Properties,
and click on the Version tab. Finally, click on the Internal Filename in the
lower section. For Windows 2000, the filename appears as filename (NT 5.0).
For example, SYMC8XX.SYS (NT 5.0).

******************** Introduction for Windows 2000 ********************
Windows 2000 is an operating system designed to run on Intel-architecture
processors using current technology. It provides a graphical user interface
environment incorporating many high-level features (refer to the Microsoft
Windows 2000 documentation for details). An I/O manager handles I/O requests
in Windows 2000. To address a SCSI peripheral, the I/O manager goes through
the appropriate drivers. Class drivers for hard disk, floptical, CD-ROM,
printer, and scanner peripherals are provided in Windows 2000.
Other class drivers, provided by peripheral manufacturers, may be added
to support new devices. Tape device support is built into the operating
system itself and does not require a class driver. Microsoft provides the
port driver and LSI Logic provides the miniport drivers. The LSI Logic
miniport drivers, SYMC8XX.SYS and SYM_HI.SYS, are bundled with Windows
2000. The LSI Logic miniport drivers, SYM_895A.SYS and SYM_U3.SYS,
are non-bundled drivers. All LSI Logic miniport drivers are used to
complete the path to an LSI Logic SCSI controller or processor with an
optional SDMS SCSI BIOS. This document describes these drivers and their
installation.
* * * * * * * * * * * Features * * * * * * * * * * * *
The miniport drivers support these features:
o Ultra160 Data Transfers (for LSI53C1010)
o Domain Validation (SYM_U3.SYS only)
o Cyclic Redundancy Check (SYM_U3.SYS only)
o Parallel Protocol Request (SYM_U3.SYS only)
o Synchronous negotiation (including Fast SCSI/Ultra SCSI/Ultra2 SCSI)
o Wide negotiation
