What are the end-user benefits of Serial Attached SCSI?
Key end-user benefits include enterprise class robustness, investment protection in compatible SCSI software and middleware and the choice of direct-attach storage devices (SAS or SATA or both) in a single SAS system. In addition, longer cabling distances, smaller form factors and greater addressability will lead to a new level of flexibility when deploying mainstream data-center servers and subsystems. SAS is based on the foundation of the industry-leading SCSI specification and as a result, reliability, familiarity and peace of mind will help satisfy user’s needs for continuity in the data center.
