AVA

-1505

Ideal for connecting Zip drives and scanners to your PC

Overview

The growing need to digitize large
amounts of visual information — and
the popularity of today’s new storage
formats — has resulted in an explosion
of demand for faster, higher perform-
ing peripherals. With an entry-level
connection to a variety of popular SCSI
devices, the AVA-1505 host adapter
provides the ideal solution for fast, reli-
able data transfer to SCSI peripherals. 

Key Benefits

Maximize Peripheral Performance
The AVA-1505 gives users a high-
performance alternative to the com-
puter’s slow parallel port. It allows
users to take advantage of faster SCSI
versions of non-booting peripherals
such scanners and Zip drives. 

With wait times reduced up to 80%,
the AHA-1505 gives users an increase
in system performance. And, since
SCSI is the only connection that
allows the attachment of multiple
external peripherals, the AHA-1505
allows users to connect more devices
to their systems. 

Easy to Install and Use
Getting started with the AVA-1505 
is a breeze. Adaptec’s user-friendly
EZ-SCSI Lite, Windows software gives
you everything you need to easily
install and configure a variety of SCSI
devices. EZ-SCSI Lite software deter-
mines which SCSI devices are present,
loads the necessary drivers, and even
modifies the system configuration files. 

Unmatched Compatibility
As with all Adaptec host adapters, 
the AVA-1505 has undergone rigorous
compatibility testing in Adaptec test
labs. With extensive compatibility,
functionality, and environmental test-
ing, users can be assured of having a
product that works seamlessly with
virtually any SCSI device available. 

Quality You Can Depend On
The AVA-1505 has received thousands
of hours of reliability testing. Known
for quality, Adaptec continues to deliver
standard-setting products that are
incorporated into the systems of virtu-
ally all major computer and peripheral
manufacturers around the world.
