3 Intel® RAID Controller SRCSAS18E Characteristics This chapter describes the characteristics of the Intel® RAID Controller SRCSAS18E. The Intel® RAID Controller SRCSAS18E is a dual phys SAS PCI Express* storage adapter that is used in a system with a PCI Express slot. PCI Express goes beyond the PCI specification in that it is intended as a unifying I/O architecture for various systems: desktops, workstations, mobile, server, communications, and embedded devices.
