  • SAS Enters the Mainstream Although Adoption of Serial Attached SCSI
    SAS enters the mainstream By the InfoStor staff http://www.infostor.com/articles/article_display.cfm?Section=ARTCL&C=Newst&ARTICLE_ID=295373&KEYWORDS=Adaptec&p=23 Although adoption of Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) is still in the infancy stages, the next 12 months bode well for proponents of the relatively new disk drive/array interface. For example, in a recent InfoStor QuickVote reader poll, 27% of the respondents said SAS will account for the majority of their disk drive purchases over the next year, although Serial ATA (SATA) topped the list with 37% of the respondents, followed by Fibre Channel with 32%. Only 4% of the poll respondents cited the aging parallel SCSI interface (see figure). However, surveys of InfoStor’s readers are skewed by the fact that almost half of our readers are in the channel (primarily VARs and systems/storage integrators), and the channel moves faster than end users in terms of adopting (or at least kicking the tires on) new technologies such as serial interfaces. Click here to enlarge image To get a more accurate view of the pace of adoption of serial interfaces such as SAS, consider market research predictions from firms such as Gartner and International Data Corp. (IDC). Yet even in those firms’ predictions, SAS is coming on surprisingly strong, mostly at the expense of its parallel SCSI predecessor. For example, Gartner predicts SAS disk drives will account for 16.4% of all multi-user drive shipments this year and will garner almost 45% of the overall market in 2009 (see figure on p. 18).

  • Serial Attached SCSI (SAS)
    Storage A New Technology Hits the Enterprise Market: Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) A New Interface Technology Addresses New Requirements Enterprise data access and transfer demands are no longer driven by advances in CPU processing power alone. Beyond the sheer volume of data, information routinely consists of rich content that increases the need for capacity. High-speed networks have increased the velocity of data center activity. Networked applications have increased the rate of transactions. Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) addresses the technical requirements for performance and availability in these more I/O-intensive, mission-critical environments. Still, IT managers are pressed on the other side by cost constraints and the need White paper for flexibility and scalability in their systems. While application requirements are the first measure of a storage technology, systems based on SAS deliver on this second front as well. Because SAS is software compatible with Parallel SCSI and is interoperable with Serial ATA (SATA), SAS technology offers the ability to manage costs by staging deployment and fine-tuning a data center’s storage configuration on an ongoing basis. When presented in a small form factor (SFF) 2.5” hard disk drive, SAS even addresses the increasingly important facility considerations of space, heat, and power consumption in the data center. The backplanes, enclosures and cabling are less cumbersome than before. Connectors are smaller, cables are thinner and easier to route impeding less airflow, and both SAS and SATA HDDs can share a common backplane. White paper Getting this new technology to the market in a workable, compatible fashion takes various companies coming together.

  • Nvme Over Fibre Channel) Qlogic® Enhanced 16GFC / 32GFC Hbas Concurrent FCP (FC-SCSI) and FC-Nvme (Nvme/FC)
    White Paper FC-NVMe (NVMe over Fibre Channel) QLogic® Enhanced 16GFC / 32GFC HBAs Concurrent FCP (FC-SCSI) and FC-NVMe (NVMe/FC) August 2021 Background and Summary Back in 1956, the world’s first hard disk drive (HDD) shipped, setting a path for subsequent generations of drives with faster spinning media and increasing SAS speeds. Then in the early 1990s, various manufacturers introduced storage devices known today as flash- based or dynamic random access memory (DRAM)-based solid state disks (SSDs). The SSDs had no moving (mechanical) components, which allowed them to deliver lower latency and significantly faster access times. HDDs and SSDs have evolved, along with new and faster bus architectures such as PCI Express (PCIe) which have helped to further improve access speeds and reduce latency in conjunc- tion with the Non Volatile Memory Express (NVMe) standard and the ensuing products. Fibre Channel (FC) is a high-speed network technology primarily used to connect enterprise servers to HDD- or SSD-based data storage. 8GFC, 16GFC and 32GFC are the dominant speeds today (with a strong roadmap to 64GFC and beyond). Fibre Channel is standardized in the T11 Technical Committee of the International Committee for Information Technology Standards (INCITS) and has remained the dominant protocol to access shared storage for many decades. Fibre Channel Protocol (FCP) is a transport protocol that predominantly transports SCSI commands over Fibre Channel networks. With the advent of NVMe, FC has transformed to natively transport NVMe and this technological capability is called FC-NVMe.

    RETIRED: Retired products sold prior to the November 1, 2015 separation of Hewlett-Packard Company into Hewlett Packard Enterprise Company and HP Inc. may have older product names and model numbers that differ from current models. HP 9000 and HP Integrity Server Input/Output Interface QuickSpecs Adapters QuickSpecs Input/Output Interface Adapters Overview This chapter describes the HP 9000 and HP Integrity Server input and output interface adapters. Input/output (I/O) interfaces are the crucial links that connect the computer system to its external peripheral devices, and connect two or more computer systems together. Interface adapters are specified by their technology (for example, SCSI, Token Ring, etc.) and by their bus type (PCI-X, PCI, HSC, etc.). Hewlett Packard provides a variety of interface backplane buses in its HP servers, including PCI-X, PCI and HSC. Mass Storage Adapters-SCSI, Fibre Channel, SAS and RAID Mass storage adapters connect the computer system to mass storage devices such as disks, tapes, and RAID systems. HP 9000 and HP Integrity servers support SCSI, Fibre Channel, and RAID I/O adapters, but not all servers support all adapter types. See the Storage Adapter QuickSpec to determine which servers support which mass storage adapters, and for details of mass storage adapters. Networking Adapters-LAN, WAN, ACC Hewlett Packard offers a number of high speed, high performance LAN and WAN networking solutions for use with HP 9000 and HP Integrity servers. Multi function Adapters-Mass Storage/LAN Combination Cards Combination adapters combine two or more I/O functions on a single card. Multiplexers Multiplexers combine a number of messages simultaneously over the same communications channel.
