Exceptional Signal Integrity
The LSI20320-R not only moves data
blazingly fast, it also insures unmatched
data reliability and signal quality. With
LSI Logic TolerANT technology, the card
improves data integrity in less than ideal
cabling environments. This is done through
active negation on the drivers and input
filtering on receivers of the controller. SureLINK
domain validation verifies that all devices are
able to communicate at the negotiated SCSI
transfer rate and optimizes the connection
between the card and each device on the
bus. The net result is exceptional data
reliability optimized performance.

Powered by Fusion-MPT
Based on LSI Logic’s Fusion-MPT (Message
Passing Technology) architecture, the
LSI20320-R provides outstanding I/O
performance while allowing extremely high
host processor efficiency. Fusion-MPT permits
an exceptionally thin device driver that’s
common to all Fusion-MPT devices for a given
OS. This promotes higher performance
and greatly reduces the integration and

OS Independent Hardware RAID (0,1)
LSI Logic Integrated RAID provides the
reliability and performance benefits of disk
mirroring (RAID 1) and striping (RAID 0).
Integrated Mirroring™ (IM) provides data
protection for the system boot volume by
simultaneously writing redundant data across
two to six disks. This provides fault tolerance
and safeguards critical information. Integrated
striping yields enhanced performance by
aggregating the bandwidth of up to six
disk drives. Integrated Striping provides a
significant boost in applications where
maximum performance is essential. LSI Logic
Integrated RAID is OS-independent and does
not require the use of special device drivers.
