9. About SAF-TE(8982/8983)
SAF-TE is proposed and standardized by Conner and Intel. It
can work properly under standard SCSI adaptor and RAID
controller without other concerns.
Under SAF-TE standard, it is included by SCSI bus and allocated
a SCSI ID, it uses a SCSI chip and 8 bits of SCSI channel. Thus
the spending can be minimized.
Our company's EN8982 supports part of SAT-TE commands.
The objective of the SAF-TE Interface is to provide a standard,
non-proprietary way for third party disk and RAID controllers to
be automatically integrated with peripheral packaging that
supports status signals (LEDs, audible alarm, LCD, etc.), hot
swapping of hard drives, and monitoring of enclosure
components.
We have application software that can show HDD’s status, if
SCSI SEF-TE chipset detects any fault and status (like HDD be
drawn, low voltage, re- plug HDD). They will be displayed on
screen or the alarm will go off.
