Overview

Product overview

Key product information and technical features.

The PXI-8214 provides a SCSI interface within a PXI system. NI's PXIe-8880 documentation names the module as an example adapter used when booting from an external SCSI hard drive or SCSI CD/DVD-ROM.

NI also references the PXI-8214 in the PXIe-8840 Quad-Core boot guidance. That guide describes BIOS boot-order configuration; consult the relevant controller documentation when planning an external SCSI boot setup.
