ServeRAID M5110 and M5110e SAS/SATA Controllers
for IBM System x
IBM Redbooks Product Guide
The ServeRAID M5110 and M5110e SAS/SATA controllers are part of the IBM® ServeRAID M Series
family that offers a complete server storage solution consisting of RAID controllers, cache/flash modules,
energy packs, and software feature upgrades in an ultra-flexible offerings structure. These products are
optimized to deliver the performance that is demanded by the ever-growing I/O requirements of today's
enterprises. While M5110 comes as a small form factor PCIe adapter, M5110e comes integrated with the
IBM System x3650 M4 server. They also share a common set of upgrades, simplifying inventory
management.

Did you know
The ServeRAID M5110 and M5110e SAS/SATA controllers are optimized for high-performance, internal
data storage with integration of the dual-core chip architecture, DDR3 1333 MHz cache memory, and
PCIe 3.0 host interface. A portfolio of building blocks allows clients to design around a bottom-up
approach and caters to a wide array of storage requirements. Upgrade features, such as support for RAID
6/60, performance optimization, and caching with SSDs, no longer require a hardware key. They are
implemented through Features-on-Demand (FoD) software licenses.
