Understanding SCSI
SCSI (pronounced "scuzzy") stands for Small Computer Systems
Interface. SCSI is an industry standard computer interface for con-
necting SCSI peripherals (such as a hard drive, CD-ROM drive, or
scanner) to a common SCSI bus.
A SCSI bus is an electrical pathway that consists of a SCSI card (such
as the SCSI Card 1505) installed in a computer and one or more SCSI
peripherals. SCSI cables are used to connect the peripherals to the
SCSI card.
For the SCSI bus to function properly, SCSI IDs must be assigned to
SCSI devices (SCSI peripherals and SCSI card), and the SCSI bus
must be properly terminated.
