SCSIforSamplers.com - New SCSI Hardware for your SamplerSamplers use three different kinds of SCSI connectors and we carry cables for all three of these different SCSI types. The three connector types used by samplers are: DB25, SCSI-1 Centronics and SCSI-2 HD50. Each of these connector types use a different SCSI plug and this can get very confusing, so we have included a SCSI Cable Chart page that will tell you exactly which cable you need for your sampler and which lengths of the cable we have available.

CSA2 FAQ Complete - A2wikiSCSI is a protocol (method of transmitting data) that lets you hook up to 8 SCSI devices on a SCSI bus (SCSI devices connected together). There are Hard Drives, tape drives, CD-ROM drives, scanners, and more available as SCSI devices. To get SCSI on an Apple II, you need to buy and install a SCSI card. (//cs and IIc Pluss have no native SCSI cards, but Chinook (later bought out by Sequential) made a Smartport capable drive as your only choice for HDs).

Related QuestionsWhat kind of SCSI interface card do I need?
Exforsys - Apple II Csa2 FAQs: 1Main-Start, Part 1/25There are three 'popular' options: The Apple Revision C, The Apple Hi- Speed, and the RamFAST. The Revision C is older and a bit slower because it does not utilize direct memory access (DMA), a feature that the Hi-Speed and RamFAST have. The Apple cards are no longer made or supported; but, you may be able to buy one at a swap meet. The Sequential Systems RamFAST has DMA plus an on-board cache of either 256kB or 1MB, making it the fastest interface available.

transintl.com upgrade F.A.Q.Only Ultra SCSI (8 bit) drives can be connected internally or externally. Ultra SCSI 16-bit drives have to be connected via a PCI Card. Ultra SCSI (16 bit) can be used with a card but a performance gap of 40 MB/s exists since Ultra SCSI (16 bit) offers only 40 MB/s (max). Ultra 2 SCSI (LVD) is highly recommended if planning to gain maximum performance with a PCI card.
Related QuestionsWhat is SCSI?
Mendax - Frequently Asked QuestionsThis acronym is pronounced "scuzzy" and stands for Small Computer Systems Interface. There are now three types of interfaces for hard drives, CD-ROM drives, etc. One is SCSI, another is IDE (also called PATA, Paralle ATA) and the newest one which replaced IDE is called SATA (Serial ATA). IDE and SATA are much more common and less expensive. SCSI is more expensive and also more flexible and generally faster.
Related QuestionsPCICASE GROUP -- CASES AND STORAGE PROFESSIONALSCSI stands for Small Computer Systems Interface and is basically a connection standard for all kinds of devices like harddisks, tape drives and CD-ROM's. It uses components that are different from IDE. SCSI had different standards, the biggest differences are the databus width and the maximum transfer speed, the databus can be 8 or 16 bits wide, the transfer speed can go up to as far as 320MB/s. There are many different cables and connectors for different SCSI standards.Related Questions

Then once GS/OS is booted it tells you that the disk is unreadable and asks if you want it formatted and you hit ok for each virtual drive and there you have it.

Apple II Csa2 FAQs: 1Main-Start, Part 1/25 - AppleSCSI ID numbers identify devices on the SCSI chain. Each device should have its own, unique ID number in the range 0-7. (If two devices on the SCSI chain have the same ID number, there will be a conflict and your system will not function correctly.) Higher numbered devices have higher priority-- get 'looked for' first-- so, it is standard practice to set the device you boot from to 6 or 7.
Related QuestionsWhat is SCSI "termination power"?
Apple II Csa2 FAQs: 1Main-Start, Part 1/25 - Appleleast one device (SCSI card or any SCSI drive) must provide power for the SCSI terminators by feeding 5 volts onto the TERMPWR line on the SCSI bus. Usually, termination power is fed through a diode to prevent backfeeding from a higher voltage source in case some other device is also supplying termination power. A good implementation will have a fuse to protect against shorts and a capacitor to cope with a sudden rise in termination power drain.
