2. FEATURES Performance 2. FEATURES 2.1.2 Performance • UltraPerformance: Onboard Ultra160 dual channel SCSI controller with two connectors that support 30 Ultra160 SCSI devices in two channels. • High-Speed Data Transfer Interface: SCSI transfers using Ultra160 dualchannel SCSI controller can handle rates up to 160MB/s. Ultra160 is backward compatible with slower SCSI devices so that older SCSI devices are not wasted. (Ultra160 SCSI cables have twisted pairs compared to flat ribbon cables used in older SCSI standards.) • SDRAM Optimized Performance: This motherboard supports PC133 "registered" Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory (SDRAM), which increases the data transfer rate to 1064MB/s max • ACPI Ready: ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface) is also implemented on all ASUS smart series motherboards. ACPI provides more Energy Saving Features for future operating systems (OS) supporting OS Direct Power Management (OSPM) functionality. With these features implemented in the OS, PCs can be ready around the clock, yet satisfy all the energy saving standards. To fully utilize the benefits of ACPI, use an ACPI-supported OS, such as Windows 2000. • Compliance: Both the Microsoft WHQL and hardware levels of the motherboard meet the requirements for SDG2.0 certification. The new SDG2.0 requirements for systems and components are based on the following high-level goals: support for Plug and Play compatibility and power management for configuring and managing all system components, and 32-bit device drivers and installation procedures for Windows NT/2000. Color-coded connectors and descriptive icons make identification easy as required by PC '99. 10 ASUS TR-DLSR User's Manual

FEATURES
2.1.2 Performance
UltraPerformance:
Onboard Ultra160 dual channel SCSI controller with two
connectors that support 30 Ultra160 SCSI devices in two channels.
High-Speed Data Transfer Interface:
SCSI transfers using Ultra160 dual-
channel SCSI controller can handle rates up to 160MB/s. Ultra160 is backward
compatible with slower SCSI devices so that older SCSI devices are not wasted.
(Ultra160 SCSI cables have twisted pairs compared to flat ribbon cables used in
older SCSI standards.)
SDRAM Optimized Performance:
This motherboard supports PC133
“registered” Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory (SDRAM), which
increases the data transfer rate to 1064MB/s max
ACPI Ready:
ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface) is also
implemented on all ASUS smart series motherboards. ACPI provides more Energy
Saving Features for future operating systems (OS) supporting OS Direct Power
Management (OSPM) functionality. With these features implemented in the OS,
PCs can be ready around the clock, yet satisfy all the energy saving standards.
To fully utilize the benefits of ACPI, use an ACPI-supported OS, such as Windows
2000.
Compliance:
Both the Microsoft WHQL and hardware levels of the motherboard
meet the requirements for SDG2.0 certification. The new SDG2.0 requirements
for systems and components are based on the following high-level goals: support
for Plug and Play compatibility and power management for configuring and
managing all system components, and 32-bit device drivers and installation
procedures for Windows NT/2000. Color-coded connectors and descriptive icons
make identification easy as required by PC ‘99.
