HyperSCSI is a new storage protocol designed for the transfer of
SCSI data and commands over networks. It runs on Ethernet-based
networks, but does not use TCP/IP as a foundation for
communications. While this may run counter to convention, it has
allowed HyperSCSI to achieve high throughput without the need for
complex and expensive hardware add-ons. It supports IDE and SCSI
hard disk drives, optical, tape, and even removable USB drives. It
is compatible with Fast Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet (with and
without Jumbo frames), and 802.11b wireless LANs.
