B
BIOS
Acronym for Basic Input/Output System. Software that provides basic read/write capability. Usually kept as firmware (ROM-based).
The system BIOS on the motherboard of a computer boots and controls the system. The BIOS on your host adapter acts as an
extension of the system BIOS.
C
configuration
Refers to the way a computer is set up, the combined hardware components (computer, monitor, keyboard, and peripheral devices)
that make up a computer system, or the software settings that allow the hardware components to communicate with each other.
D
device driver
A program that permits a microprocessor (through the operating system) to direct the operation of a peripheral device.
domain validation
A software procedure in which a host queries a device to determine its ability to communicate at the negotiated data rate.
drive group
A group of physical drives that combines the storage space on the drives into a single segment of storage space. A hot spare drive
does not actively participate in a drive group.
E
EEPROM
Acronym for Electronically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory. It is a memory chip that typically stores configuration
information, as it provides stable storage for long periods without electricity and can be reprogrammed. See NVSRAM.
external SAS device
A SAS device installed outside the computer cabinet. These devices are connected using specific types of shielded cables.
F
Fusion-MPT architecture
An acronym for Fusion-Message Passing Technology architecture. Fusion-MPT architecture consists of several main elements:
Fusion-MPT firmware, the Fibre Channel and SCSI hardware, and the operating system-level drivers that support these
architectures. Fusion-MPT architecture offers a single binary, operating system driver that supports both Fibre Channel and
SCSI devices.
H
host
The computer system in which a RAID controller is installed. It uses the RAID controller to transfer information to and from devices
attached to the SCSI bus.
host adapter board
A circuit board or integrated circuit that provides a device connection to the computer system.

- Sas controllers leverage a common electrical and physical connection interface that is compatible with serial ata technology the sas protocols and the sata iii protocols use a thin 7 wire connector instead of the 68 wire scsi cable or 26 wire ata cable the sas sata iii connector and cable are easier to manipulate allow connections to smaller devices and do not inhibit airflow the point to point sata iii architecture eliminates inherent difficulties created by the legacy ata master slave architecture while maintaining compatibility with existing ata firmware 8
- Sas is a serial point to point enterprise level device interface that leverages the proven scsi protocol set sas is a convergence of the advantages of sata scsi and fibre channel and it is the future mainstay of the enterprise and high end workstation storage markets sas offers a higher bandwidth per pin than parallel scsi and it improves signal and data integrity 8
