Serial Attached SCSI Overview

1 Day Course

This one-day class answers the questions about how SAS works, what expanders are and how they expand the addressing/connectivity of SAS domains, and how Serial ATA is attached to and operates within a Serial Attached SCSI domain. Following an overview, each of the protocol layers is looked at individually, and then it is all put together into an operational configuration.

SAS Plus Updated to SAS-2:
Our existing course, which has been praised by industry experts for its content and delivery, has been updated to include the latest of SAS-2. New subjects are Zoning, Multiplexing, 6 Gbps, Training, New Counters and SMP and STP Time Limits. Existing sections of the course have also been upgraded to the new standard.

This class is designed for Program and Product Managers, Marketing and Sales team members (this covers Serial Attached SCSI only, not competitive analysis), Technical Support, Customer Support and anyone else who needs to understand and converse in Serial Attached SCSI.
