6.2.SCSI Physical Interface

All Western Digital SCSI hard drives are designed to conform to the SCSI-3 Parallel Interface as described in the draft of proposed ANSI specification X3T10/855D Revision 15a. In addition, drives equipped with the 80-pin SCA connector are designed to conform to the Small Form Factor Committee draft specification SFF-8046 Rev 2.0 entitled “SCA-2 (Single Connector Attach) for SCSI Disk Drives”. Since tutorials on SCSI-3 and SCA are beyond the scope of this manual, users should review their SCSI implementations as required to ensure compliance. The SCSI-3 spec has several informative annex sections on cabling, bus termination, crosstalk, etc., that are quite helpful to SCSI system architects and implementors.
