SAS & SATA Controller

How do they work?

SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) and SATA (Serial ATA) controllers allow servers and workstations to connect hard drives and SSDs to the motherboard.

SAS controllers offer faster data transfer speeds and advanced features over SATA, making them ideal for read-intensive applications or when maximum throughput is critical. They support drive capacities up to 16TB and beyond.

The SAS controllers we source come in various configurations to suit different server platforms from top vendors like LSI, Avago, and Intel. They include external and internal models with options for Hardware RAID and pass-through modes.

This gives you flexibility in drive management with features like redundancy, tiering, caching, and more. SAS controllers allow longer cable lengths of up to 125 feet compared to SATA, letting you centralize storage away from the server chassis when needed.

System Needs and Speed

For smaller systems or less demanding workloads, SATA controllers offer a cost-effective alternative. They support transfer speeds up to 6Gbps and have built-in RAID 0, 1, and 10 support.

Our SATA controller stock includes basic models as well as premium options with features like battery-backed caching and data protection tools. They are suitable for tasks like file sharing, database management, and virtualization environments.
