ABSTRACT:
SAS, which has replaced cabled parallel SCSI as the interconnect technology of choice, provides high bandwidth and high data throughput and is compatible with existing SATA topologies. Now SAS is evolving and its value is rapidly growing.
As SAS enters its second generation, the standard is evolving to enable:
- Better bandwidth utilization
- Easier management mechanisms
- Greater network robustness
This white paper provides an overview of SAS and discusses how second generation SAS controllers not only provide higher throughput and bandwidth, but can also improve system diagnostics, management, configuration and initialization. Read this white paper to learn more.
