Question 3

Describe how the SCSI interface works including how disk drives are connected to the controller.

Accepted Answer

Each SCSI interface can support up to 8 or 16 devices (including the controller),depending on the type of SCSI.The disks or other SCSI devices are connected to each other and to the controller by a single cable.Each end of the cable must be electrically terminated to prevent echoes and ghost signals on the cable.Either a disk drive or an external terminator typically terminates the other end of the chain. Each SCSI disk must have a unique address assigned to it.
