research Serial Attached SCSI or SAS is a communication protocol for direct attached storage designed to allow much higher speed data transfers than traditional SCSI (small computer system interface).

As you may know, like ATA, SCSI is a parallel technology with multiple devices included on each data channel. Also like ATA, SCSI has been overhauled with its own serial technology, aptly named Serial ...

Serial Attached SCSI drives are fast, robust, and for the most part identical to the high-performance devices already in use in the enterprise. Not only are they built to the same specifications that ...

Last time we began to look at why vendors are moving us off the parallel SCSI interface and onto Serial Attached SCSI, or SAS – identifying benefits such as thinner cables and increased signal ...

Here’s a look at how a SAS simulator developed by University of New Hampshire’s InterOperability Laboratory can scale enterprise storage area networks in the age of big data. Serial attached SCSI (SAS ...
