The SCSI Manager is the part of the Mac OS that controls the transfer of data between a Macintosh computer and peripheral devices connected through the Small Computer System Interface (SCSI). In 1993, Apple Computer introduced SCSI Manager 4.3, an enhanced version of the SCSI Manager that provides new features as well as compatibility with the original version.
