3.1 ServeRAID-MR10is SAS/SATA Controller
The ServeRAID-MR10is SAS/SATA Controller is a dual PHY, SAS
PCI Express adapter and is used in a system with a PCI Express slot
.
PCI Express goes beyond the PCI specification in that it is intended as
a unifying I/O architecture for various systems: desktops, workstations,
mobile, server,
communications, and embedded devices.
The following subsections provide graphics and connector information for
the ServeRAID-MR10is controller.
The ServeRAID-MR10is PCI Express Disk Array Storage Adapter has
one LSISAS1078DE processor that controls eight internal SAS/SATA
ports through two SAS 4x internal connectors.
This subsection provides the board layout and connector information for
the ServeRAID-MR10is controller, which has eight internal SAS/SATA
connectors.
Figure 3.1 displays the connectors on the controller, and
Table 3.1 describes them.
