虽然插入即用(PnP)系统及其组件的设计过程在一年多以前已开始,但PnP系统中的各个难点还有待于解决.这些难点包括:平台本身、基本输入输出系统(BIOS)、操作系统(Windows 95)和附加板.到目前为止,平台差不多已准备就绪,BIOS已能买到,但操作系统(Windows 95)仍在翘首以待,而附加板还刚刚开始上市.Adaptec公司推出一对符合PnP标准的特殊SCSI主适配器板.这两块板分别是AHA-1540CP和AMM-1540CM,性能相似,只是1540CM具有多媒体功能.它们不仅能与PnP兼容,而且还遵循早期的ISA、DOS和Win-dows标准,并可与SCSI 1和SCSI 2器件配用.
While the design process for PnP systems and their components has been around more than a year ago, the challenges of the PnP system have yet to be addressed: the platform itself, the basic input-output system (BIOS), the operation System (Windows 95), and add-on boards. By now, the platform is almost ready and the BIOS is commercially available, but the operating system (Windows 95) is still waiting and the add-on board is just getting started. For the PnP-compliant special SCSI host adapter board, the two boards are AHA-1540CP and AMM-1540CM, respectively, with similar performance, except that the 1540CM has multimedia features that are not only PnP-compatible but also follow earlier ISA, DOS, Win-dows standard and is available with SCSI 1 and SCSI 2 devices.
