The I2O standard was designed to simplify and speed up I/O operations on servers. It was going to eliminate the need for different drivers for each OS, and for each SCSI card and network card. The speed-up was achieved by using an Intel 960 chip on the server's motherboard to handle a lot of the I/O processing that would normally be handled by the processor or I/O subsystem.
