SCSI has been questioned as having limitations on distance and speed. Why should anyone buy a SCSI-based product?

0

A. The performance of SCSI-based products has frequently been better than the performance of products based on other interfaces in industry benchmark tests. Today s SCSI products can connect devices up to 12 meters. With LUN bridges and switched SCSI technology, for example, SCSI can connect 960 devices per bus, and with expanders, extend the cable length up to 75 meters. Servers and high-end systems have multiple buses allowing thousands of drives per system. RAID systems allow connection of hundreds of drives to a single port, since the RAID box appears as a single drive to the system.
