SCSI (small computer system interface)
n.
(Computers) interface standard for connecting disk drives and other peripheral devices to personal computers (enables faster transmission than regular parallel connections)
SCSI
SCSI (Small Computer System Interface) is a set of standards for physically connecting and transferring data between computers and
peripheral devices. The SCSI standards define
commands, protocols, and electrical and optical
interfaces. SCSI is most commonly used for hard disks and tape drives, but it can connect a wide range of other devices, including scanners, and
optical drives (
CD,
DVD, etc.). The SCSI standard contains definitions of command sets of specific
peripheral device types; the presence of "unknown" as one of these types means that in theory it can be used to interface almost any device, but the standard is highly pragmatic and addressed toward commercial requirements.
