HBA Features
■
Support for a maximum of 10 physical devices within any single RAID volume and a
maximum of fourteen physical devices within all RAID volumes combined
■
PCI Express interface that is compatible with the
PCI Express Specification
, revision 2.0
and backward compatible with the
PCI Express Specification
, revision 1.1
■
Implementation of the PCI Express interface as an x4 or x8 interface
■
Compatibility with the PCIe Low Profile standards
■
PCI Express transmission and reception data rate that is 5.0 Gb/s in each direction, yielding
a total bandwidth of 10 Gb/s for each full-duplex lane
■
Simplified cabling with a point-to-point, serial architecture
■
Smaller and thinner cables that promote unrestricted airflow
■
Serial, point-to-point, enterprise-level storage interface
SAS/SATA Features
The following are the SAS/SATA features supported by the HBA:
■
Serial SCSI protocol (SSP), serial ATA tunneling protocol (STP), and serial management
protocol (SMP), as defined in the
Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) Specification
, version 2.0
■
SAS interface that is compatible with the
ANSI Serial Attached SCSI Specification
, revision
2.0 and the
Serial ATA Specification
, revision 2.6
■
Capability of running with either four or eight serial ports for connection to SAS/SATA
(Serial ATA) devices
■
Each serial port is capable of 6.0 Gb/s SAS and SATA link rates and 1.5 Gb/s or 3.0 Gb/s
SATA link rates
Note -
While each serial port is capable of 6 Gb/s SAS and SATA link rates, only four of
the eight serial ports can operate at 6 Gb/s link rates at one time. This is to accommodate
platforms that are not designed for 6 Gb/s operation.
■
Support for the easy addition of SAS interfaces to any computer, workstation, or server with
a PCI Express bus
■
Four or eight PCIe PHYs, which provide possible host-side maximum transmission and
reception rates of up to 4 Gb/s
■
Narrow and wide ports
■
SATA target devices, as defined in the
Serial ATA Specification
, version 2.6
■
Transfer of data using SCSI information units
