- It isn't. These settings are negotiated between the drive and the
- controller during bootup. You can put the unitcontrol command into your
- user-startup to get the desired settings.

- ie. UnitControl UNIT 0 PERIOD 10 OFFSET 12
-
- To get SCSI ID 0 set to 10MB/sec synchronous with an offset of 12. You can
- play around with the offset value at higher numbers but you will want to
- do a speed test with each setting to find the one you want.
