Poised as
the next-generation successor to the popular SCSI bus, Serial
Attached SCSI (SAS) is the latest word in I/O interfaces. With its
ability to support high-performance, enterprise-class storage
and cost-effective high-capacity Serial ATA devices, SAS is
uniquely positioned as a key I/O interface.
This book
provides the first comprehensive, in-depth description of this
exciting new interface outside of the standards. Packed with
over 600 pages of diagrams, tables and explanatory text, this
book will help you understand the inner workings of SAS.
Whether
you work with storage arrays, servers, blade servers or high-performance
workstations, this book will be an invaluable aid to understanding
the SAS interface.
