    Seagate Launches SAS, (Serial Attached SCSI)

    SAS, (Serial Attached SCSI)

    I hope SAS runs off PCI-X or has it's own independent bus.

      It says the first SAS drives are going to be 2.5". I wonder if these will find their way into laptops? (Ok, I know that will never happen, but it would be quite cool.)

      That will be up to the individual host implementors.

          Is PCI Express the one where the south bridge pretty much acts like a switch?
