SCSIProbe

SCSIProbe is an application that is quite so similar with the DriveSetup preflet application, but it's not quite the same. DriveSetup is used for mounting, unmounting and initializing disks or partitions (IDE, SCSI or USB), SCSIProbe on the other displays the device's configuration on the system.

The application is used for the SCSI and USB devices (USB Pen Drives, Iomega Zip drives, scanners, printers and other peripherials) you attach to your computer. When you have your devices connected to your system, the SCSIProbe will display a table similar to this:

All detected SCSI Buses will be displayed in the upper field with an adapter name, and you will get information about the SIM and HBA vendors, and also about the Controller Family and Type. When selecting one of the SCSI buses in the upper field, you will get information about the connected devices in the lower left field (SCSI Devices). It will show all devices connected to the chosen bus, their ID numbers, type, vendor and what it is (product). Clicking on a device in this field will also present information in the field for Logical Units.

If you have problems getting the devices to work properly and the device has a LED drive activity indicator, simply select the device in the SCSI Devices field and press the Flash LED button. If the lamp lights up, it confirms that Zeta sees the device. If you've attached or detached a device from the system, simply click the Update button and Zeta will rescan the scsi buses, and alert the system if there are any changes.
