The information in this article applies to:

In Windows NT, the Adaptec 174x SCSI adapter may be detected as a 154x
model.
 
If the Adaptec 174x SCSI adapter is configured for standard mode, it
emulates the 154x adapter. Windows NT detects it as a 154x adapter and
installs the Windows NT 154x SCSI driver. This is expected behavior
and this mode is supported in Windows NT.
 
If the Adaptec 174x is configured for enhanced mode, the adapter is
detected as a 174x.
 
The mode, standard or enhanced, can be changed through the Adaptec
setup utility. Please refer to the Adaptec manual for details on
changing this mode.
