What might happen if a SCSI bus is not properly terminated?
Performance may suffer; the initiator (SCSI controller) may not see the SCSI targets (i.e, disks) ... or they may disappear at some really bad time; or performance might be great but you will get a lot of errors and data corruption ; The correct answer depends on a lot of variables including cable length; whether or not the controller and/or any of the disks are terminated; type of SCSI you use; quality of SCSI cabling; and SCSI device physical topology. Your computer may not even boot or spin up the whatever is connected to the SCSI controller. Bottom line, SCSI absolutely must be terminated properly. If it isn't, bad things may happen at unpredictable times.
Which ID number is normally assigned to the SCSI controller?
The ID number which is traditionally assigned to the SCSI controller is ID 7. ID 7 is given the highest priority during bus arbitration.
If a motherboard does not have an embedded SCSI controller the gateway from the SCSI bus to the system bus is the a card inserted into an expansion slot on the motherboard?
Host Adapter
Which interface requires a ribbon cable and a built-in controller on the drive itself?
SCSI
What is the hard drive controller connector?
There are three.1. IDE2. Sata3. SCSI
What is the maximum number of devices that can be connected to a typical SCSI 1 controller card?
7
How many devices can be daisy chained on a single standard SCSI controller?
Most modern SCSI buses support a total of 16 devices, while older SCSI implementations usually support only eight devices.
What is a SCSI host adaptor?
A SCSI host adapter is a device used to connect one or more other SCSI devices to a computer bus. It is commonly called a SCSIcontroller, which is not strictly correct as any component understanding the SCSI protocol can be called a controller. It connects to the PCI Express.
You purchased 2 scsi devices which are both set to the same id by default. how can both be used on the same scsi controller?
You change the ID of one of them. You change the ID of one of them.
What is SCIS?
SCSI is a type of interface used for computer components such as hard drives, optical drives, scanners and tape drives. It is a competing technology to standard IDE (Integrated Drive Electronics). While the less expensive IDE technology is built into motherboards, SCSI is a technology that must be added by purchasing a SCSI controller. The SCSI card fits into an internal PCI slot. SCSI devices are then connected to this card.
A SCSI port is?
SCSI, pronounced as scuzzy, stands for Small Computer System Interface. An SCSI port is used to attach peripheral devices that use the SCSI system , mainly for data transfer.
