LSI53C1010

The LSI53C1010 is a dual-channel, PCI Ultra160 SCSI controller that provides pin compatibility to older Ultra2 SCSI controllers for simplified migration. It is an excellent solution for RAID and JBOD mass storage, relieving bottlenecks in a wide variety of server and workstation applications.
