A method to adjust physical links of serial attached small computer system interface (SAS) expanders of a computing device. The SAS expanders include a first SAS expander and one or more second SAS expanders. When data flow of the physical links of the first SAS expander for transmitting data to a second SAS expander is saturated, the method determines whether the first SAS expander has reserved physical links that can be adjusted. If the first SAS expander has reserved physical links that can be adjusted, the method generates a new firmware, and adjusts the adjusted physical link to the second SAS expander by writing the new firmware to the first SAS expander. The method also adjusts the adjusted physical link to the second SAS expander on hardware circuit.
