==SAS and SATA== [[Serial Attached SCSI|SAS]] or serial-attached SCSI is the current connectivity to replace the previous generation parallel-attached SCSI (PAS) devices. Ultra320 was the highest level of parallel SCSI available, but SAS has since replaced it as the highest-performing SCSI technology. [[Serial ATA|SATA]] is a similar technology from the aspect of connection options. HBAs can be created using a single connector to connect both SAS and SATA devices. Major SAS/SATA adapter manufacturers are Promise Technologies, [[Adaptec]], [[Hewlett-Packard|HP]], [[QLogic]], Areca, [[LSI Logic|LSI]] and [[ATTO Technology]]. ===eSATA=== [[Serial ATA#eSATA|External Serial ATA]] (eSATA) [[disk enclosure]]s and drives are available in the consumer computing market, but not all SATA-compatible motherboards and [[disk controller]]s include eSATA ports. As such, adapters to connect eSATA devices to ports on an internal SATA bus are available.
