Synopsis

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Direct-attached storage refers to a digital storage system directly attached to a server or workstation, without a storage network in between. It is a retronym, mainly used to differentiate non-networked storage from SAN and NAS. A typical DAS system is made of a data storage device connected directly to a computer through a host bus adapter. Between those two points there is no network device, and this is the main characteristic of DAS. The main protocols used for DAS connections are ATA, SATA, eSATA, SCSI, SAS, and Fibre Channel.
