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.
SCSI stands for Small Computer System Interface. It is a set of standards for connection and transfer of data to peripheral devices.
SCSI, Fast SCSI, Ultra SCSI, Ultra2 SCSI: 8 devices Wide SCSI, Fast Wide SCSI, Ultra Wide SCSI, Wide Ultra2 SCSI, Ultra3 SCSI, Ultra160 and 160+ and Ultra320 : 16 devices Of course, the number of devices supported depends not only on protocol limitations, but cable length, number of cables used, etc.
Ultra wide SCSI. wide SCSI buses support 16 devices, rather than the eight devices specified in regular SCSI.
The two basic types of cabling for SCSI (Small Computer System Interface) are parallel SCSI and serial SCSI. Parallel SCSI uses multiple wires to transmit data simultaneously, allowing for faster data transfer rates but is limited by cable length and the number of devices that can be connected. In contrast, serial SCSI, as seen in technologies like Serial Attached SCSI (SAS), transmits data sequentially over a single pair of wires, enabling longer cable lengths and support for more devices while improving overall performance and reliability.
16 devices can be connected
8 Devices can be used on a single SCSI bus.

It connects eternal device, connects power supply to analyze data.-Small computer system interface.-for peripheral devices connectivity (8 devices (0-7))-Internal and external buses like power supply and extensive peripherals.-Ultra SCSI - 32 devices (no wire is required, all with is uses is wireless).-Physical drive accession - (Single hard dish is physical drive).-Logical drive accession.-SCSI ID is available in the device.Configuration done in booting.-5MB/Sec.-SCSI: 2--Fast SCSI - 10MB/Sec.--Wide SCSI - 16bit 20MB/Sec.-SCSI: 3--Support 32 device - 40MB/Sec.Note: the above answer is in the form of points.
Wide SCSI bus can support up to 16 devices using channels 0-15.
SCSI or Small Computer System Interface is a set of standards for connecting computers and peripheral devices for data transfer. SCSI is commonly used for hard disks and tape drives, but can connect a wide range of other devices like optical drives like CD/DVD drive if the specific device being connected supports the standard. There are different SCSI port types like parallel SCSI, serial SCSI, Fiber SCSI and iSCSI. More details can also be found on Wikipedia. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SCSI - Neeraj Sharma
Most modern SCSI buses support a total of 16 devices, while older SCSI implementations usually support only eight devices.
