LSI Logic:
  • MegaRAID® SAS 300-8E, 8-port PCI Express SAS RAID adapter utilizing the LSISAS1068 controller IC, connecting to an nStor 12-drive SAS enclosure with the LSISASx12 SAS expander and housing SAS drives from Maxtor.
  • RAID 6 with HP Advanced Data Guarding running on a SAS JBOD, featuring the LSISAS1064 4-port controller and the LSISASx12 12-port expander.
  • LSISAS1078 8-port SAS ROC running on the industry-leading MegaRAID RAID stack to demonstrate the robust functionality and performance required by today's enterprise server and external storage applications.
  • MegaRAID iSCSI target, featuring a MegaRAID SATA adapter and PyX Technologies' iSCSI software, providing the channel with a complete solution that enables them with the reliability, redundancy and performance required in today's storage applications.

Fujitsu:
  • Fujitsu, working together with AMD and LSI Logic, has tested and built a SAS solution with less cabling, smaller connection points, and 2.5" SFF SAS hard disk drives that increase throughput while reducing heat and power for blade servers and workstations that power mission critical data centers. Fujitsu and LSI Logic recognize the increased pressure to ensure interoperability within the enterprise and have engineered their solutions to interoperate with current SAS and serial ATA (SATA) products.

    As part of its collaborative effort with AMD and LSI Logic, Fujitsu evaluated its SFF SAS hard disk drives against its own 3.5" parallel SCSI hard disk drives. The testing resulted in the Fujitsu SFF SAS hard disk drives outperforming its 3.5" parallel SCSI hard disk drives by over 398%, clearly demonstrating that the SAS interface is the choice for high-performance storage solutions.
