Seagate to exhibit 12Gbps SAS SSD this week

Seagate to exhibit 12Gbps SAS SSD this week

Following the announcement of Western Digital's 12 gigabits-per-second (Gbps) SAS solid state drive – a first of its kind – last week, Seagate Technology spilled the bean that it will be demonstrating a 12Gbps SAS solid-state drive (SSD) at the SCSI Trade Association Technology Showcase this week at the Hyatt Hotel in Santa Clara, California. Seagate's new Pulsar.2 SSD is “dual-ported” (for resiliency), which means that there are two I/O paths into the drive, so if one path fails, the drive won't be inaccessible.
