| | SCSI - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | SCSI stands for "Small Computer System Interface", and is a standard interface and command set for transferring data between devices on both internal and external computer buses. | | | Since then, SCSI has developed as an industry-wide standard, capable of being applied to virtually any computer system (there were even SCSI implementations for the venerable Commodore 64 and Apple II home computers). | | | SCSI is most commonly used for hard disks and tape storage devices, but also connects a wide range of other devices, including scanners, printers, CD-ROM drives, CD recorders, and DVD drives. |

| | SCSI |
| | The Small Computer System Interface (SCSI) is a parallel I/0 bus and protocol that permits the connection of a variety of peripherals including disk drives, tape drives, modems, printers, scanners, optical devices, test equipment, and medical devices to a host computer. | | | The SCSI bus connects all parts of a computer system so that they can communicate with each other. | | | Certain SCSI bus functions are assi,-ned to the initiator and certain SCSI bus functions are assigned to the target. |

| | comp.periphs.scsi FAQ part 1 of 2 |
| | These SCSI capabilities are very valuable in a true multi-tasking environment, especialy important in a busy file server, and useless under DOS, which cannot take advantage of them. | | | The stated goal of compatibility between manufacturers had not been achieved in SCSI in 1986 due to a proliferation of undocumented "features." Each implementation was different enough that new software drivers had to be written for each device. | | | Edited by Gary Field(gfield@zk3.dec.com) ==== SCSI stands for Small Computer Systems Interface. |

| | A SCSI device shows up at all possible LUNs The device has buggy firmware. | | | If your root disk partition is on a scsi device, you will not be able to use modularized versions of scsi code required to access the disk. | | | LUNS other than 0 don't work Many SCSI devices are horrendously broken, lock the SCSI bus up solid, and do other bad things when you attempt to talk to them at a logical unit someplace other than zero. |

| | The end result is that each piece of SCSI hardware has its own host adapter, and the software drivers for the device cannot work with an adapter made by someone else. | | | SCSI hardware typically consists of hard drives, tape drives, CD-ROMs and scanners. | | | It is more of a system level interface, meaning that it does not only deal with disk drives. |

| | "SCSI continues to evolve offering the performance to match any interface, with low cost and flexibility that allows new and old devices to coexist on the same logical bus. | | | Even if you've spent only a short time in the NT universe, you've likely heard time and time again that Small Computer System Interface (SCSI) is the best choice for NT computers. | | | With the ever increasing demand for high performance computing, SCSI continues to play a central role in keeping pace with emerging technology. |

| | SCSI bus interface, standards and technical information |
| | The goal of the effort was to develop an interface that supported logical block addressing rather than head/cylinder/sector, 8-bit parallel data transfer instead of analog serial and generic commands rather than a couple of control lines. | | | Also it was now possible to have more than one host adapter on a SCSI bus. | | | In 1986, SCSI was approved by ANSI as document X3.131-1986. |

| | Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) is a new generation of SCSI hard disks designed to allow for much higher speed data transfers. | | | SAS supports up to 16,256 addressable devices per port and point to point data transfer speeds up to 3 Gbps, but is expected to reach 10 Gbps by the year 2010. | | | SAS drives are not compatible on a SATA bus and have their physical connector keyed to prevent any plugging into a SATA backpane. |
