O que (quem) é SCSI adaptor - definição

SCSI target; SCSI initiator

SCSI adaptor      
<hardware> (Or "host adaptor") A device that communicates between a computer and its SCSI peripherals. The SCSI adaptor is usually assigned SCSI ID 7. It is often a separate card that is connected to the computer's bus (e.g. PCI, ISA, PCMCIA) though increasinly, SCSI adaptors are built in to the motherboard. Apart from being cheaper, busses like PCI are too slow to keep up with the newer SCSI standards like Ultra SCSI and Ultra-Wide SCSI. There are several varieties of SCSI (and their connectors) and an adaptor will not support them all. The performance of SCSI devices is limited by the speed of the SCSI adaptor and its connection to the computer. An adaptor that plugs into a parallel port is unlikely to be as fast as one incorporated into a motherboard. Fast adaptors use DMA or bus mastering. Some SCSI adaptors include a BIOS to allow PCs to boot from a SCSI hard disk, if their own BIOS supports it. Adaptec make the majority of SCSI chipsets and many of the best-selling adaptors. Note that it is not a "SCSI controller" - it does not control the devices, and "SCSI interface" is redundant - the "I" of "SCSI" stands for "interface". (1999-11-24)

<hardware> A version of the SCSI command specification. SCSI-2 shares the original SCSI's asynchronous and synchronous modes and adds a "Fast SCSI" mode ( < 10MB/s ) and "Wide SCSI" (16 bit, < 20MB/s or rarely 32 bit). Another major enhancement was the definition of command sets for different device classes. SCSI-1 was rather minimalistic in this respect which led to various incompatibilities especially for devices other than hard-disks. SCSI-2 addresses that problem. allowing scanners, {hard disk drives}, CD-ROM drives, tapes and many other devices to be connected. Normal SCSI-2 equipment (not wide or differential) can be connected to a SCSI-1 bus and vice versa. (1995-04-19)

SCSI initiator and target

In computer data storage, a SCSI initiator is the endpoint that initiates a SCSI session, that is, sends a SCSI command. The initiator usually does not provide any Logical Unit Numbers (LUNs).

On the other hand, a SCSI target is the endpoint that does not initiate sessions, but instead waits for initiators' commands and provides required input/output data transfers. The target usually provides to the initiators one or more LUNs, because otherwise no read or write command would be possible.
