[comp.sys.next] NeXT SCSI implementation

cerberus@caen.engin.umich.edu (R Eric Bennett) (03/05/91)

How did NeXT implement SCSI?  On the Mac SCSI data is directed through the 
microporcessor.  This basically limits the speed of the SCSI transfers to the
speed of the microprocessor.  I'm thinking of implementing some hard disk
recording on the NeXT and SCSI throughput is critical.

Thanks,
Eric
