The Dell 405-AAEI PERC H330 RAID controller is a powerful tool designed to provide efficient and reliable data storage and management solutions. With its SAS 12Gbps / SATA 6Gbps PCI-E 3.0 x8 interface and 2GB cache, it offers fast and efficient performance in managing critical data in enterprise-grade storage systems.
In this article, we will take a closer look at the Dell 405-AAEI PERC H330 RAID controller, its features, benefits, and how it works. We will also explore some of the technical specifications and capabilities of this device.
RAID ControllerA RAID controller is a hardware device that manages data storage using a RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks) configuration. RAID is a data storage technology that combines multiple physical disk drives into a single logical unit for better performance, reliability, and data redundancy.
RAID controllers typically come in the form of expansion cards that are installed in a server or storage system. They manage the RAID configuration and provide advanced data management and protection features, such as data redundancy, automatic data recovery, and performance optimization.
Key Features and BenefitsThe Dell 405-AAEI PERC H330 RAID controller is a PCIe 3.0 x8 expansion card designed for use with Dell PowerEdge servers and storage systems. It supports SAS 12Gbps and SATA 6Gbps drives and provides hardware RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 10, and 50 for data protection and redundancy.
The H330 RAID controller comes with a 2GB DDR3 cache for efficient data processing and includes a battery backup unit (BBU) to protect data in the cache in the event of a power failure. It also supports drive hot-swapping, which allows users to replace failed drives without powering down the system.
The Dell 405-AAEI PERC H330 RAID controller offers a range of features and benefits that make it a reliable and efficient tool for enterprise data storage and management. Here are some of the key features and benefits of this device:
- Fast Data Transfer Rates
The H330 RAID controller supports SAS 12Gbps and SATA 6Gbps drives, providing fast data transfer rates and high-speed data processing. This makes it ideal for enterprise storage systems that require quick access to critical data.
- Hardware RAID Configuration
The H330 RAID controller supports hardware RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 10, and 50, providing data protection and redundancy features that improve data availability and system reliability. Hardware RAID configurations are generally faster and more reliable than software RAID solutions.
- 2GB DDR3 Cache
The H330 RAID controller comes with a 2GB DDR3 cache, which provides efficient data processing and improved system performance. The cache stores frequently accessed data, reducing the time it takes to access that data and improving overall system performance.
- Battery Backup Unit
The H330 RAID controller includes a battery backup unit (BBU) that protects data in the cache in the event of a power failure. This ensures that data is not lost or corrupted during a power outage, which can be critical in enterprise environments.
- Drive Hot-Swapping
The H330 RAID controller supports drive hot-swapping, which allows users to replace failed drives without powering down the system. This improves system availability and reduces downtime, ensuring that critical data is always accessible.
