  "... The first PCB features either two or four SAS SSD controllers, jointly
   developed by Intel and Hitachi (the same controllers are used in Hitachi's
   Ultrastar SSD400M). These controllers are very similar to Intel's
   X25-M/G2/310/320 controller family but with a couple of changes.
   The client controller features a single CPU core, while the Intel/Hitachi
   controller features two cores (one managing the NAND side of the drive
   while the other managing the SAS interface). Both are 10-channel designs,
   although the 910's implementation features 14 NAND packages per controller."

   "In front of the four controllers is an LSI 2008 SAS to PCIe bridge. There's
   no support for hardware RAID, each controller presents itself to the OS
   as a single drive with a 200GiB (186GB) capacity. ..."
