The Adaptec EZ-SCSI utility is an MS-DOS application that automatically configures
the computer to use an Adaptec SCSI host adapter and the devices connected to it.
The Adaptec EZ-SCSI utility also copies applications and device drivers to the com-
puter’s hard-disk drive. The configuration and installation process is explained with a
series of screens. In most cases, the computer and SCSI devices are configured to
take full advantage of all the performance benefits of SCSI when you accept the
default values suggested by these screens.
Follow these steps to install the Adaptec EZ-SCSI utility:

If you accept all the default values, the EZ-SCSI utility copies the files from the
diskette to the
c:\scsi

directory does not already exist.) The EZ-SCSI utility also adds command lines to
your computer’s configuration files (
autoexec.bat
and/or
config.sys
) that will
load the required device drivers into memory when you boot your computer.
