Module description
The EMC Unity 12 Gb/s SAS I/O Module with Encryption is a high-density SAS controller chipset executing specialized firmware that provides Data At Rest Encryption (D@RE) for EMC Unity storage arrays. It implements 256-bit AES-XTS encryption/decryption to encrypt and decrypt data as it is being written to or read from a SAS drive. The two variants are the Storage Processor SAS Module variant which is embedded on the printed circuit board (PCB) of the Storage Processor and the Pluggable I/O SAS Module variant which is embedded on the PCB of a pluggable I/O Module.
