Tips & Best Practices
-
Use this tool to understand data rate differences between legacy and current technologies
-
Apply conversions to aid in hardware compatibility evaluations
-
Consider nominal values and negotiated speeds as starting points only
-
Use it alongside documentation for vintage system integration
-
Recognize the limits of direct interoperability between these technologies
Limitations
-
Conversion involves significantly different technological scales
-
Nominal and negotiated speeds may vary by hardware and link conditions
-
Direct interoperability between modem (110) and SCSI (Sync) is limited due to different protocols and physical layers
Frequently Asked Questions
-
What does modem (110) represent in data transfer?
-
Modem (110) denotes a legacy data transfer speed of approximately 110 bits per second, used in early dial-up and teletype communications.
-
What is SCSI (Sync) mode?
-
SCSI (Sync) is a synchronous transfer mode of the SCSI protocol where data transfer occurs in sync with a negotiated clock, enabling higher throughput.
-
Why convert from modem (110) to SCSI (Sync)?
-
Conversion helps compare or translate low-speed legacy data rates to modern storage interface rates, assisting analysis across different technology periods.
Key Terminology
-
Modem (110)
-
A nominal legacy data transfer speed of about 110 bits per second used in early teleprinter and dial-up communications.
-
SCSI (Sync)
-
Synchronous transfer mode in the SCSI protocol that transfers data in step with a negotiated clock for higher efficiency.
-
Negotiated Clock
-
The clock signal agreed upon by devices in synchronous SCSI transfers determining effective data rates.
