PMC-Sierra and Seagate Achieve 6Gb SAS Interoperability

For next SAS-2 HDDs

PMC-Sierra, Inc. and Seagate Technology announced the companies achieved interoperability between
PMC-Sierra’s end-to-end 6Gb/s SAS chipset and Seagate’s early
development 6Gb/s SAS Hard Disk Drives (HDDs). This successful
demonstration of 6Gb/s Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) interoperability
provides server and storage system equipment manufacturers with an
end-to-end system architecture that delivers new levels of
scalability, availability and reliability.

Interoperability testing demonstrated 6Gb/s line rate traffic
exchanges between Seagate’s early development 6Gb/s SAS HDDs and
PMC-Sierra’s 6Gb/s SAS chipsets, which includes the Tachyon SPC
8x6G SAS protocol controller, the SRC 8x6G RAID-on-Chip controller and
maxSAS SXP 36/24x6GSec expander switches.

"As a leading provider of enterprise storage system solutions for
networked and server storage applications, PMC-Sierra is focused on
ensuring that fully interoperable components are available to reduce
time-to-market for 6Gb/s SAS/SATA systems
," said Travis Karr, vice
president of marketing for PMC-Sierra’s Enterprise Storage Division.
"This achievement provides server and storage system OEMs with the
confidence that PMC-Sierra and Seagate products will work together
seamlessly in a SAS-2 eco-system
."

"Seagate’s Serial Attached SCSI enterprise customers demand the
highest levels of reliability and performance along with the latest
technology in our products,
" said Henry Fabian, executive director of
Seagate’s Enterprise Product Marketing. "By ensuring interoperability
with other technology leaders like PMC-Sierra, Seagate is leading the
way with 6Gb/s SAS to enable our customers to benefit from fully
interoperable system solutions in the future
