+ The driver reports on the synchronous transfer parameters negotiated between
+ the host adapter and target devices in units of "mega-transfers/second". For
+ wide devices, the unit of transfer is 16 bits if wide negotiation has been
+ successfully completed. Therefore, the total transfer rate to wide devices
+ will generally be twice the synchronous tranfer rate reported by the driver.
