SEAGATE 1200 SSD PRODUCT MANUAL, REV. A 52
11.0 INTERFACE REQUIREMENTS
This section partially describes the interface requirements as implemented on Seagate 1200 SSD drives. Additional
information is provided in the SAS Interface Manual (part number 100293071).
11.1 SAS FEATURES
This section lists the SAS-specific features supported by Seagate 1200 SSD drives.
11.1.1 Task management functions
Table 13 lists the SAS task management functions supported.
11.1.2 Task management responses
Table 14 lists the SAS response codes returned for task management functions supported.
11.2 DUAL PORT SUPPORT
Seagate 1200 SSD SAS drives have two independent ports. These ports may be connected in the same or different SCSI
domains. Each drive port has a unique SAS address.
The two ports have the capability of independent port clocking (e.g. both ports can run at 12Gb/s or the first port can run at
12Gb/s while the second port runs at 6Gb/s.) The supported link rates are 1.5, 3.0, 6.0 or 12.0 Gb/s.
Subject to buffer availability, the Seagate 1200 SSD drives support:
• Concurrent port transfers—The drive supports receiving COMMAND, TASK management transfers on both ports at the
same time.
• Full duplex—The drive supports sending XFER_RDY, DATA and RESPONSE transfers while receiving frames on both
ports.
