          |------------------------------------------------------------|
          |   W1 through W4 are used to configured the drive type as   |
          |  supported by the BIOS. To support most of the drives on   |
          |  the market, there are several different BIOS’s offered.   |
          |  The different BIOS drive type tables are listed with the  |
          | OMTI 5510; The settings are the same for the 5520 and the  |
          |                            5527                            |
