(Otherwise, if mixing be sure - have the FIREBRIGADE nearby).

Mode	Bandwith	Frequ.	Max Data Transfer Rate	Max Cable Length Single- -Ended
SCSI-I	8-bit	5 MHz	5 MBps	6 meters
SCSI-II	8-bit	5 MHz	5 MBps	6 meters
Fast SCSI	8-bit	10 MHz	10 MBps	3 meters
Wide SCSI	16-bit	5 MHz	10 MBps	6 meters
Fast/Wide SCSI	16-bit	10 MHz	20 MBps	3 meters
32-bit SCSI	32-bit	5 MHz	20 MBps	6 meters
32-bit Fast SCSI	32-bit	10 MHz	40 MBps	3 meters
Fast-20 SCSI	8-bit	20 MHz	20 MBps	1.5 m
Fast-20 Wide SCSI (UltraSCSI)	16-bit	20 MHz	40 MBps	1.5 m

NOTE: Fast-20 Wide SCSI is also reffered to as UltraSCSI single ended. The single ended refers to the length of the SCSI cable w/o using differential technology and w/o the use of a SCSI repeater.

With an SCAM (SCSI Configured AutoMagically) Adapter installed, the adapter use ID #6 during BOOT. All to an SCAM-adapter connected devices should support SCAM - otherwise conflicts.
