APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR TRANSMITTING SERIAL ATA INFORMATION |
| 摘要 |
A method and system are provided for transmitting SATA (serial advanced technology attachment) information. In an implementation, SATA commands are passed to an expander, rather than SCSI (Small Computer System Interface) commands. In an example implementation, SATA protocol elements are encapsulated into SAS (Serial Attached SCSI)-like frames and transmitted using the SSP (Serial SCSI protocol) and using SSP hardware. |

1. A method of transporting commands between a serial advanced technology attachment (SATA) host device and a target device comprising:
a) performing, at the host device, translation and queue management between SATA and SAS (Serial Attached Small computer system interface); and b) sending SATA commands and other information units to an expander using a Serial SCSI (Small Computer System Interface) protocol (SSP). |
