SMALL COMPUTER SYSTEMS INTERFACE (SCSI)

Meaning of SMALL COMPUTER SYSTEMS INTERFACE (SCSI) in English

Pronounced "scuzzy," SCSI is a parallel interface standard used by Apple Macintosh computers, PCs, and many Unix systems for attaching peripheral devices to computers. SCSI interfaces provide for faster data transmission rates (up to 80 megabytes per second) than standard serial and parallel ports. In addition, you can attach many devices to a single SCSI port, so that SCSI is really an I/O bus rather than simply an interface.
