Avago states their new SAS 9300 16-port HBA family is an ideal solution for large scale-out storage requirements, and with them, IT departments now have the ability to deploy fewer servers with more available storage ports. This results in cost savings, reduced data center footprint, and lower power consumption.
The new Avago SAS HBAs are based on the Fusion-MPT architected SAS controllers, which uses the Fusion-MPT (Message Passing Technology) architecture. Each controller is equipped with PowerPC processors to help deliver maximum host CPU offload. In addition, the built-in intelligence gives Avago the ability to publish a single binary OS driver to operate any Fusion-MPT controller or adapter, which enables high performance, reduced software development, and faster time to market.
