What is Advanced SCSI Programming Interface (ASPI)?
| The Advanced SCSI Programming Interface (ASPI) is an SCSI software interface developed by Adaptec Inc. for sending commands to SCSI host adapters. It provides an insulating layer so that peripheral device designers do not have to deal with differences in SCSI host adapters. |
