Managing Link Speed
The Managing Link Speed feature allows you to change the link speed between the
controller and an expander or between the controller and a drive that is directly
connected to the controller.
All phys in a SAS port can have different link speeds or can have the same link speed.
You can select a link speed setting. However, if phys in a SAS port have different link
speed settings and if a phy is connected to a drive or an expander, the firmware
overrides the link speed setting you have selected and instead uses the common
maximum link speed among all the phys.
To change the link speed, perform the following steps:
1. Click Controller Properties on the WebBIOS main menu.
There are four Controller Properties screens. The first Controller Properties screen
appears. See
