Introduction to SCSI-2
SCSI (Small Computer System Interface) is an I/O bus protocol that
provides high performance, peer-to-peer data communications for
up to 16 devices, including one or more host computers. The main
advantage for using SCSI-2 is that all the initialization information
is stored within the SCSI-2 device. The hostÕs operating system can
obtain all the pertinent information about the device without
referencing external setup files or software drivers.
