Preface
This installation guide explains how to install Oracle’s eight-port, internal Sun
StorageTek SAS RAID HBA (referred to as Sun StorageTek SAS RAID Internal HBA
in this document), which uses Adaptec technology. It also provides a basic overview
of Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) and Redundant Array of Independent Disk (RAID)
technology.

Before You Read This Document
Familiarize yourself with computer hardware, data storage, RAID technology, and
the input/output (I/O) technology—SAS, or Serial ATA (SATA)—used by the HBA.
Also, familiarize yourself with Direct-Attached Storage (DAS) or Network-Attached
Storage (NAS)—whichever is appropriate for your storage space—and Storage Area
Network (SAN) concepts and technology.
If you are using a SPARC system with the HBA and you need to install the Solaris
OS, read the Solaris 10 10/08 Installation Guide: Basic Installations (part number: 820-
5236-nn) prior to installing the HBA. You can find this document by performing a
