Some devices will only connect to your computer using a port called 'RS232 Serial Port'. This port was used on old computers before 2003.

Storage class drivers load on top of the port driver. This means that you can write storage class drivers for Windows with minimal concern for the unique hardware features of each SCSI adapter. The emulation capabilities of the SCSI Port driver also allow you to develop minidrivers that are much simpler to design and code than a monolithic port.

RS232 was the universal/popular port back in the old days just like USB is today.

In short, all you need to know is..

1. In a driver pair, one driver handles general tasks that are common to a whole collection of devices, while the other driver handles tasks that are specific to an individual device. The drivers that handle device-specific tasks go by a variety of names, including miniport driver, miniclass driver, and minidriver.

Modern computers no longer have RS232 port (extinct just like VGA port is). So all you need to get is a RS232-to-USB converter. It's about $5 on eBay. Just search for: rs232 usb
