About SAS (Serial-Attached SCSI) Drivers:

Install the SAS software and your system will properly recognize the serial attached SCSI (SAS) protocol, as well as have the ability to make use of all available functions regarding this bus technology.

Once installation of this package is complete, computers will benefit from a wider range of features like error recovery, reservations, and block reclamation, but they will also be able to use functions such as tagged command queuing, and SCSI command sets, as well as several other options.

When it comes to applying this release, make sure you refer to the update guide provided by the manufacturer. As a general rule, the only steps you have to follow are: get the software, extract it if necessary, run the available setup, and follow the on-screen instructions for a complete installation.

Bear in mind that even though other OSes might be compatible, we recommend you to install this version only on specified platforms. Also, don't forget to perform a system reboot to make sure all changes take effect properly.

That being said, download this SAS software, refer to the upgrade manual, and then apply it on your system. Visit us as often as possible and stay “updated one minute ago.”
