CHAPTER 1 General Description 1.1 Standard Features 1.2 Hardware Structure 1.3 System Configuration This chapter describes the feature and configuration of the MBA3xxxRC. The HDDs are high performance large capacity 3.5-inch hard disk drives with an embedded Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) controller. The interface used to connect the HDDs to the host system complies with ANSI T10/1601-D Serial Attached SCSI-1.1 (SAS-1.1), which covers items ranging from SAS physical layers to SCSI command protocols. The high-speed data transfer and long-distance transmission capabilities of SAS technology and the powerful command set the HDD facilitate creation of high-performance and highly reliable disk subsystems with large storage capacities. 1.1 Standard Features (1) Compactness The HDDs are a compact enclosure which complies with the 3.5-inch hard disk drive form factor. (2) Environmental Protection The HDDs comply with the Restriction of the use of certain Hazardous Substances in electrical and electronic equipment (RoHS) directive issued by European Union (EU). (3) SAS Standard The HDDs are equipped with a serial attached SCSI (SAS) as a host interface. • Transfer rate: 1.5Gbps, 3.0Gbps • Number of SAS ports: Two • Full-duplex (simultaneous bidirectional data transfer) is supported.
