SCSI 3 - Before Adaptec and later SCSITA codified the terminology, the first parallel SCSI devices
that exceeded the SCSI-2 capabilities were simply designated SCSI-3. These devices, also
known as Ultra SCSI and fast-20 SCSI, were introduced in 1992. The bus speed doubled again
to 20 MB/s for narrow (8 bit) systems and 40 MB/s for wide. The maximum cable length
stayed at 3 meters but ultra SCSI developed an undeserved reputation for extreme sensitivity
to cable length and condition (faulty cables, connectors or terminators were often to
blame for instability problems).
