Glossary SE (single-ended) A type of SCSI signaling that allows a maximum transfer rate of 40 MB/s. Conforms to the Wide-Ultra SCSI standard. Now being phased out in favor of LVD technology. S.M.A.R.T. (Self-Monitoring, Analysis, and Reporting Technology) Technology co-developed by Compaq and the hard drive industry that provides warning of imminent drive failure. This feature makes it possible for Compaq to offer Pre-Failure Warranty replacement of hard drives. S.M.A.R.T. supersedes the drive parameter tracking feature that was previously used for this purpose because the self-monitoring routines used in S.M.A.R.T. are more accurate than the drive parameter tracking tests. The self-monitoring routines are customized for that specific drive type and have direct access to internal performance, calibration, and error measurements. SmartStart An abbreviation for the Compaq SmartStart and Support Software CD. A collection of software for updating system drivers, configuring arrays or a system, diagnosing problems with arrays or a system, and updating firmware for the system or options. (The latest version of any of these software packages can be obtained by downloading a SoftPaq file from the Compaq website.) SmartStart can also be used to create or update the system partition on your hard drive. SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) Governs network management and the monitoring of network devices and functions. SoftPaq file A compressed, self-extracting executable file available on the Compaq website that contains the latest version of a particular support software package. Can be downloaded to diskettes or directly to a hard drive. spare See online spare. striping See data striping. surface analysis See ARM. Compaq Smart Array 5300 Controller User Guide Glossary-5
