Hello,=20
=20
The following specs are defined for SATA - are there similar specs for
SAS?
=20
Advanced Host Controller Interface Specification for SATA (AHCI)=20
    - hardware/software interface between system software and the host
controller hardware
   =20
SATA PHY Interface Specification (SAPIS)
    - interface between SATA link and phy=20
     (in SAS, I guess this would be the interface between PHY and
transceiver)
