The SCSI drives are not BIOS configurable as they are connected to the SCSI
controller. The harddisks are IDE. And yes, this is a CD-ROM boot set. As
for your question, I did say that the CD-RW and the DVD-ROM are both true
SCSI-2 devices, and I paid accordingly. Model numbers for the devices are
Toshiba M-1410 for the DVD-ROM and Yamaha CF-1S (Or something like that.)
The SCSI controller is a SIIG AP-40.
