high-9 termination[edit]

Searching for cites for this with Google is rather odd. Doesn't show up in any books or on Scholar, but there are definitely companies that sell (or did sell) high-9 terminators.

This one in particular... is "DataMate" a brand or company? Don't know, this PDF is just a few pages from the middle of a catalog, but looking at the schematics on page 49 it's quite detailed.

high-9 is currently mentioned in a note. It would be nice to add a ref but both of the above links are badly broken. ~Kvng (talk) 21:14, 20 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

pronouonciation[edit]

Shouldn't the informal pronounciation be mentioned?

The article on SAS evens says <<SAS replaces the older Parallel SCSI (Small Computer System Interface, pronounced "scuzzy")>> — Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.207.106.255 (talk) 15:19, 27 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Pronunciation is indicated in the lead of SCSI. I don't think we need it here too. ~Kvng (talk) 21:16, 20 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Where did the data about HVD go?[edit]

there used to be information about High Voltage Differential signalling. Just because it was not common doesn't mean that mention of it should be stripped from the article. Otherwise the encyclopedia is not complete. I also don't understand splitting the articles. Unless you read the talk page you would never see a reference to parallel scsi. As it is parallel is touched on briefly and the history is described. But this history isn't described here at all. SASI was exactly the same signaling, pinout and command structure as SCSI-1. The name was changed because the standard couldn't have a company name in it. 174.208.42.1 (talk) 17:21, 23 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

HVDS options are discussed briefly in SCSI-1 and SCSI-2 sections. There are no sources cited. ~Kvng (talk) 21:24, 20 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
