Description: This card enables large-scale direct attach storage (DAS) arrays through eight external 3Gb/s ports, driving up to 122 Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) and Serial ATA (SATA) devices. The host bus adapter supports large capacity external server storage RAID and non-RAID enclosures by connecting a 64-bit PCI-X 133MHz bus with two external x4 SFF8470 SAS connectors. It demonstrates a significant advantage over parallel SCSI in providing 2400MB/s external data throughput and cost optimization of SAS and SATA drives.LSI has been the hands-down leader in serial interface technology for over five generations. The LSISAS3800X HBA leverages LSI� s expertise in serial communication to provide superior signal integrity over distances greater than 6 meters. Security in data transmission over long distances enables the LSISAS3800X to supply more external storage applications without needing a high-cost optical infrastructure. Additionally, LSI� s high-speed serial interconnect expertise ensures an interrupt-free, READ/ WRITE intensive experience for end-users. Minimize
