The IBM EXN3000 SAS/SATA expansion unit is designed to provide SAS or SATA disk expansion capability for the IBM System Storage N series systems. The unit includes the ATTO FibreBridge™ 6500N Fibre Channel-to-SAS bridge.

The inclusion of ATTO's FibreBridge 6500N Fibre Channel-to-SAS bridge in the EXN3000 enables:

  • SAS/SATA disk storage to integrate into a Fibre Channel SAN
  • Increased availability and scalability while allowing the use of direct attached storage on a shared FC network
  • Connection of newer, faster and higher capacity SAS drive technology to your existing 2, 4 or 8Gb Fibre Channel SAN
  • Management of disk and communication errors between targets and initiators
