LSI 12Gb/s SAS technology delivers 50 percent greater storage I/O performance. The Intel Xeon Processor E5-2600 v2 Product Family, based on 22nm process technology, delivers greatly reduced power consumption while at the same time providing increased performance. The combined solution enables a powerful platform for next-generation servers.


“Workload demands in IT datacenters and cloud environments have grown exponentially, and are driving the need for server systems that can balance performance, efficiency and cost,” said Jim Pappas, Director of Technology Initiatives, Intel Corporation. “With today’s announcement of the new Intel Xeon Processor E5-2600 v2 Product Family, we are excited to see support from LSI 12Gb/s SAS technology, allowing customers to benefit from systems that can deliver the full performance potential of flash storage as well as address the needs of virtualised environments.”


“This is an exciting time for the industry as 12Gb/s SAS technology has emerged to satisfy the ever-increasing demands for more storage performance and I/O bandwidth in the enterprise,” said Kelly Bryant, vice president of marketing, RAID Storage Division, LSI. “As the first-to-market leader in 12Gb/s SAS solutions, LSI has worked closely with Intel on the server platform supporting the new Intel Xeon Processor E5-2600 v2 Product Family, and is committed to helping ensure the solutions deliver their promise of world-class server performance and efficiency.”


LSI announced the industry's first shipments of 12Gb/s SAS RAID-on-Chip and I/O controllers for server and external storage OEMs this year. In July, LSI announced its first-to-market family of 12Gb/s SAS host bus adapters.
