Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) is a computer bus interface that connects host devices, such as servers, to storage devices, such as hard drives or solid-state drives (SSDs). SAS is similar to SATA, but it is designed for use in enterprise storage environments and provides a higher level of performance, scalability, and reliability compared to SATA.
SAS-12 Gbps is the latest version of the SAS interface, it provides faster data transfer speeds than previous versions of SAS (SAS-6 Gbps) and also offers more bandwidth per drive. The SAS-12 Gbps interface provides a maximum data transfer rate of 12 Gbps, which is significantly faster than the 6 Gbps provided by SAS-6 Gbps and 3 Gbps provided by SATA.
SAS also supports hot-swapping, which allows for connecting and disconnecting storage devices without shutting down the computer. This allows users to easily add or replace storage devices without disrupting the operation of the system. Additionally, SAS supports multiple lanes, allowing for increased data throughput, and supports multiple initiators and targets, allowing for more devices to be connected to the host.
