Frequently Asked Questions
-
What does kilobit/second (SI definition) represent?
-
It represents a data transfer rate of 1,000 bits per second, commonly used to describe low-bandwidth digital links and telemetry rates.
-
What is SCSI (LVD Ultra80)?
-
SCSI (LVD Ultra80) is a high-performance Low Voltage Differential variant of Ultra2 SCSI that supports up to 80 megabytes per second on a wide 16-bit bus.
-
Can I use this conversion for actual real-world throughput measurements?
-
No, the conversion is based on raw transfer bandwidth and does not reflect protocol overhead or network conditions.
