Conclusion Serial Attached SCSI will play a key role as the enterprise continues to move towards more optimized, cost-effective storage platforms. A single SAS-based subsystem equipped with 15K SAS drives and nearline-ready SATA drives is capable of handling the full gamut of enterprise storage duties, from online (transactional, high availability) to nearline (archival, low availability) applications. Purpose-built for nearline duty, this new breed of nearline-ready SATA drives ensures application reliability is not diminished. Moreover, the peerless performance of 15K SAS drives enables systems that deliver greater throughput with fewer drives than 10K SAS systems, significantly increasing configuration flexibility and cost-effectiveness. Unrivalled in both performance and efficiency, 15K SAS-based solutions exemplify storage without compromise.
