(I)nterface (SCSI)
A standard high-speed parallel interface defined by the
American National Standards Institute (ANSI). A SCSI
interface is used for connecting microcomputers to
peripheral devices such as hard disks and printers, and to
other computers and local area networks (LANs).
here is what
www.pericom.com has to say(One brand or SCSI)
"The basic idea of RAID (Redundant Array of Independent
Disks) is to combine multiple, inexpensive disk drives into
an array of disk drives in order to obtain performance,
capacity, and reliability that exceeds that of a single
large drive. The array of drives appears to the host
computer as a single logical drive. RAID offers fault
tolerance and higher throughput levels than a single hard
drive or group of independent hard drives.
and for a more thorough, detailed and complete explanation;
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-
1/articles/storage-devices/scsi.html (especially section
2.3.8) - "Problems like hang-ups, bad data etc might be
the result of using a higher data transfer rate then your
motherboard can stomach." and "there is an option that can
be put into the kernel config file to allow dynamic
determination of the right, read: fastest feasible,
transfer rate. This option is disabled by default"
and a search for the term "device driver scsi/Raid Host
Controller" with Google also found these where hopefully
you can find the manufacturer for the driver you need. -
