Key Terminology
-
SCSI (LVD Ultra80)
-
A Low Voltage Differential SCSI variant offering up to 80 MB/s with a 16-bit bus and improved noise immunity.
-
SCSI (Fast Ultra Wide)
-
A legacy parallel SCSI mode combining a wider 16-bit bus with faster signalling for higher throughput.
-
Data Transfer
-
The amount of data that can be transmitted between storage devices and controllers per unit of time.
