SCSI (Fast) applies only to legacy hardware environments.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
What does Modem (300) represent?
-
Modem (300) indicates a data transfer rate of 300 bits per second, typical of early analog dial-up modems.
-
What kind of devices use SCSI (Fast)?
-
SCSI (Fast) connects legacy storage devices like hard drives and tape drives in older servers and workstations.
-
Why convert between Modem (300) and SCSI (Fast)?
-
Converting between these units helps compare early low-speed modems with higher-speed legacy storage interfaces for historical or technical evaluations.
Key Terminology
-
Modem (300)
-
A data transfer rate of 300 bits per second from early dial-up modem standards.
-
SCSI (Fast)
-
A legacy parallel SCSI interface that improves transfer speeds of classic SCSI devices to about 10 MB/s.
