Function
Storage backplane with integrated SAS controller for
SAS bays and DVD in the system unit. SAS bays are
2.5-inches or Small Form Factor (SFF) and use drives
that are mounted on a carrier/tray specific to the
system unit (SFF-3).
The high-performance SAS controller provides RAID-0,
RAID-5, RAID-6 and RAID-10 support for either HDD
or SSD. JBOD support for HDD is also supported.
Controller has no write cache.
The high-performance SAS controllers each provides
RAID-0, RAID-5, RAID-6 and RAID-10 support. JBOD
support for HDD is also supported. There is no write
cache on either controller.
Storage backplane with dual integrated SAS controllers
with write cache. High-performance controllers run
SFF-3 SAS bays, 1.8-inch SSD cage bays if supported,
and DVD bay in the system unit. Dual controllers (also
called dual I/O adapters or paired controllers) and
their write cache are placed in integrated slots and do
not use PCIe slots.
The high-performance SAS controllers provide RAID-0,
RAID-5, RAID-6, RAID-10, RAID-5T2, RAID-6T2, and
RAID-10T2 support. Patented Active/Active
configurations with at least two arrays is supported.
