Dual-domain SAS Using dual-ported drives and dual controllers, or a controller capable of supporting dual domains, provides dual-path redundancy from the server. Figure 2 shows an example of a single controller capable of dual-domain support. The dual-domain SAS configuration in Figure 2 can tolerate simultaneous single port failure in a dual-port, dual-domain capable controller, external cable failure, and expander failure. Figure 2.
