Getting Your SATA Certified Products Listed

SATA-IO’s Interoperability Program maintains the standard’s integrity, ensuring interoperability among SATA products and promoting SATA as a highly reliable storage technology. Member products that pass Interoperability Testing, either through an Interoperability Workshop or an approved Independent Test Lab, are eligible for listing on the Building Blocks List and Integrators List. Together these two catalogs populate the SATA Product Listing, a searchable database that is updated weekly and contains information about a solution’s type, class, feature support and company.

Interested in having your product(s) listed on SATA Product Listing? Consult the SATA-IO Interoperability Testing page or reach out to admin@sata-io.org with any questions.   

Technical Highlight - SATA Power Management

Power consumption is an increasingly significant factor for both the consumer and enterprise storage markets. Energy efficiency credentials are being advertised in everything from the latest notebook computers to next generation data centers. Going green is nothing new for the SATA interface. Check out the Power Management page to learn more about how SATA is increasing efficiency in storage solutions.
