In contrast, the consumer-oriented SATA interface has only one channel. The Serial SCSI Protocol (SSP) is used for SAS drives, and the Serial ATA Tunneling Protocol (STP) is employed for SATA drives.

The Fibre Channel Protocol (FCP), a transport protocol similar to TCP, sends SCSI commands into Fibre Channel frames. Fibre Channel provides high-performance storage networking, but due to the ...

But a standard predating all of this was very common in high-end systems: SCSI. [RetroBytes] recently did a video on the bus which he calls the “USB of the 80s.” Historically, Shugart — a ...

There are actually three different protocols available to SAS. These protocols are known as Serial SCSI Protocol (SSP), SCSI Management Protocol (SMP), and SATA Tunneled Protocol (STP).

There was a time when high-performance disk drives used SCSI — the Small Computer System Interface — and everything else was kid stuff. Now, advanced forms of SCSI are still around but there ...

The Fibre Channel Protocol (FCP) serializes SCSI commands into Fibre Channel frames and uses IP for in-band SNMP network management (see SNMP). For more about storage networks, see SAN.
