I take exception to that :-)  Alls I know is that they are enabled by 
default.

Run "ncrcontrol":

# ncrcontrol
T:L  Vendor   Device           Rev  Speed   Max Wide Tags
0:0  SEAGATE  ST31055N         0318  10.0  10.0   8    4
1:0  SEAGATE  ST31055N         0318  10.0  10.0   8    4
2:0  SEAGATE  ST31055N         0318  10.0  10.0   8    4
3:0  SEAGATE  ST31055N         0318  10.0  10.0   8    4
4:0  SEAGATE  ST31055N         0318  10.0  10.0   8    4

I just a day or two ago sent a note to Stefan asking about the maximum
number of tags allowable...  it looks to me as though IF you are using
the Adaptec stuff that it defaults to 8 tags.  I really don't know
anything much about the real technical details of this stuff though..
I rely on the SCSI gods for this info.
