certification (WHQL) at product launch.
Supported Device Technology
The various device technologies supported by the Intel
RMS25PB080, RMS25PB040, RMS25CB080 and RMS25CB040 is described in the
subsections that follow.
Support for Hard Disk Drive Devices
®
Intel
Integrated RAID Module RMS25PB080, RMS25PB040, RMS25CB080 and
RMS25CB040 integrates four or eight internal high-performance SAS/SATA III ports that
support SAS and enterprise-class SATA hard drives. Each port supports both SAS and
SATA devices using the SAS Serial SCSI Protocol(SSP), Serial Management Protocol
(SMP), and Serial Tunneling Protocol (STP). The SSP protocol enables communication
with other SAS devices. STP allows the SAS RAID controller to communicate with SATA
devices using the SATA commands.
SAS Expander Support
The Intel
RMS25CB040 supports LSI* expanders, Vitesse* SAS expanders, and PMC expanders
that are used as a component in Intel
supported post launch, based on market conditions and customer requirements.
