SCSI Connector - Serial SCSI - Connectors On The Drives (Internal)

Connectors On The Drives (Internal)

  • Fibre Channel FC-AL disk-drives include a 40-pin SCA-2 connector
  • SSA disk-drives include a "unitized" composite connector
  • SAS disk-drives have an SFF 8482 connector. This is "form factor compatible" with the connector on SATA disk drives, meaning that a SATA drive may be installed in an SAS drive bay, and the enclosure can use the Serial ATA Tunneling Protocol (STP) to make use of the drive. There are keyed parts to the connector on an SAS drive that will prevent it from being inserted into a SATA drive bay.
  • There is no defined iSCSI disk-drive connector

Famous quotes containing the word drives:

    Who then is she,
    She holding me? The people’s sea drives on her,
    Drives out the father from the caesared camp;
    The dens of shape
    Shape all her whelps with the long voice of water,
    That she I have,
    The country-handed grave boxed into love....
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
