3-Gb SAS/SATA II Connectivity with
Integrated RAID Support
ATTO introduces the ExpressSAS R380 Low-
Profile RAID Adapter. Providing 3-Gb SAS/SATA II
connectivity with integrated RAID support and eight
external ports, the ATTO SAS RAID adapter is
ideal for both IT and digital video environments that
require a high level of data protection and perform-
ance.
The ATTO ExpressSAS host adapter product
family provides enhanced reliability and
performance thanks to more than 15 years of
experience with SCSI hardware and storage
connectivity solutions. Using PCI Express bus tech-
nology and an eight external port configuration, the
ATTO ExpressSAS R380 RAID adapter delivers
blazing fast performance with transfer rates of up to
3-Gb per second per port. With two external x4
Mini SAS connectors, the R380 provides connec-
tivity of up to 128 SAS/SATA targets. The R380
also features 256MB of ECC-protected DDR2
DRAM to allow support for multiple RAID groups.
The ATTO ExpressSAS R380 RAID adapter is
engineered for the most stringent IT server and
digital media workgroup environments. To satisfy
the data protection requirements of these
environments, ATTO leverages it’s time tested
ATTO RAID Stack (ARS™) technology based on a
proven RAID core that is compatible with multiple
operating systems, applications, and drives.
The easy-to-use GUI utility enables RAID
management, monitoring, and configuration. ATTO
also incorporates it’s field proven Advanced Data
Streaming (ADS™) technology to meet the most
demanding performance requirements of data
intensive applications. In addition, ATTO provides
industry standard PCIe to SAS control using Serial
SCSI Protocol (SSP), Serial ATA Tunneling
Protocol (STP), and Serial Management Protocol
(SMP).
