OVERVIEW The LSI Logic Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) 3Gb/s integrated controller is based on Fusion-MPT™ (Message Passing Technology) architecture, the industry’s leading high-performance interface technology. The LSISAS1068 eight-port controller provides 1.5 and 3Gb/s data transfer rates per port and enables Integrated RAID solutions in storage environments including servers and external storage systems. The LSI Logic SAS controller is ideal for today’s data centers and leverages existing SCSI infrastructure for investment protection. The serial interface allows for point-to-point connection, increased device bandwidth, higher availability with dual ported drives, and enhanced reliability when compared to parallel SCSI. LSI Logic SAS controllers comply with the SAS standard which includes improved performance, simplified cabling, smaller connectors, a lower pin count, and lower power requirements. The eight-port controller provides an aggregate bandwidth of 2.4GB/s and also runs in full duplex. In addition, the LSI Logic SAS controllers leverage an electr...
