environments. With support for both SAS and SATA
II drives, the eight-port MegaRAID SAS 8308ELP provides
greater deployment flexibility with support for
up to 16 devices using SAS expanders. Offering data
transfer rates of up to 3Gb/s per port, a PCI Express
host interface, 128MB DDR SDRAM, a high-performance
I/O processor, and remote battery backup support,
