Storage Module Device
From Computer History Wiki
(Redirected from SMD)
The Storage Module Device (usually abbreviated to SMD) was a popular interface standard for the connection between a disk drive device controller and the drive. It was created by Control Data Corporation, and later adopted by a number of manufacturers after an open ANSI standard was available. It was later superseded by the Small Computer System Interface (SCSI) interface standard.
