SAS Traffic for ZFS Solutions [30821]
Andrew Galloway says, "Cables Matter"
Andrews writes, "No, I don't mean brand, or color, or even connector-type zealotry.. but when sizing solutions and working with customers and partners on new builds, I often find that either no thought goes into the SAS cabling, or only a little bit does.

ZFS: Read Me 1st (Capabilities and Cautions) [30528]

But 19 technology companies (my definition, not Fortunes) made this list, two of which scored the top two spots -- Google at No. 1 and SAS at No. 2. The companies were scattered among multiple categories from IT to professional services, to manufacturing for one..."
