Explanation of Solution

Small Computer System Interface (SCSI):

  • The main use of SCSI is to connect several peripherals to the system.
  • In most of the systems, a SCSI device will be connected to a controller card. With the help of this controller card, all devices are connected to the system.
  • The Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) technology is used to transfer information in serial mode.
  • The data transfer speed in SAS technology is 768 MB/S.
  • A single SCSI controller is capable of connecting a maximum of 65,535 SAS disks.
  • Hence, the connections are established using serial cables.
