SAS solid-
state drives.

Enterprise SAS SSDs use the Serial Attached SCSI protocol and dual-port server/storage connectivity. They are cataloged separately from SATA SSDs because the protocols and host compatibility are not interchangeable.

Interface & deployment

SAS initiators and SATA hosts are not interchangeable: a SATA-only controller does not provide a SAS target connection. Dual-port paths and failover behavior require compatible SAS HBAs, cabling, expander/backplane and host software.
