SCSI bus configuration
Up to eight SCSI devices operating as an initiator or a target can be connected to the SCSI bus
for the 8-bit SCSI and up to 16 SCSI devices operating as an initiator or a target can be
connected to the SCSI bus for the 16-bit SCSI in any combination.
For example, the system can be configured as multi-host system on which multiple host
computers that operate as initiator or connected through the SCSI bus.
Using disconnect/reconnect function, concurrent input/output processing is possible on multi-
SCSI devices.
