Chaparral Network Storage designs and markets storage appliances that provide simple solutions to common storage networking problems. Chaparral specializes in advanced performance devices that deliver data efficiently within the network, and sells protocol bridges, data routers, RAID controllers and disk array appliances that are network-ready. Maxtor recently had the opportunity to sit down with James Russo, Vice President of Engineering, at Chaparral Network Storage to discuss his views on Serial Attached SCSI (SAS), and how its ability to interoperate with Serial ATA (SATA) disk drives will affect the way storage systems are designed and deployed.
