Performance and Scalability Considerations
The performance and scalability of the Dell 405-AAOZ 9380-4I4E MegaRAID RAID controller will depend on several factors, including the host server, the storage configuration, and the workload. Here are some general guidelines:
- Host server: The performance and scalability of the 9380-4I4E MegaRAID will depend on the processing power, memory, and I/O capabilities of the host server.
- Storage Configuration: The 9380-4I4E MegaRAID supports SAS and SATA drives and can be configured as a RAID controller or as a pass-through device. The performance and scalability of the storage configuration will depend on the number of drives, the type of drives, and the specific RAID configuration. The 9380-4I4E MegaRAID supports RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60, and 1E.
- Workload: The performance and scalability of the 9380-4I4E MegaRAID will depend on the type and intensity of the workload. Applications with high I/O requirements, such as database servers, will benefit from higher performance and scalability.
In general, the 9380-4I4E MegaRAID is designed to provide high performance and scalability for a wide range of storage configurations and workloads.
Management and Monitoring Tools
The Dell 405-AAOZ MegaRAID PCI-E 3.0 x8 SAS RAID controller can be managed and monitored using several different tools, including:
- MegaRAID Storage Manager (MSM): This is a graphical user interface (GUI) tool that allows you to manage and monitor your MegaRAID controller and storage. MSM provides information on system status, disk status, and performance, and allows you to configure and manage RAID arrays.
- MegaCLI: This is a command-line interface (CLI) tool that allows you to manage and monitor your MegaRAID controller and storage. MegaCLI provides information on system status, disk status, and performance, and allows you to configure and manage RAID arrays.
- SNMP: The MegaRAID controller supports Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), which allows you to monitor and manage the controller using network management tools.
It is recommended to check the official Dell Support website for the most up-to-date information on the management and monitoring tools for the Dell 405-AAOZ MegaRAID RAID controller and to consult with a Dell representative for specific recommendations for your specific use case.
Compatibility with Host Servers and Operating Systems
The compatibility of the Dell 405-AAOZ MegaRAID SAS RAID controller depends on several factors, including the host server, the operating system, and the storage configuration. Here are some general compatibility guidelines:
- Host servers: The MegaRAID SAS RAID controller is compatible with select Dell PowerEdge server models. You can check the compatibility of your server by visiting the Dell Support website and entering the server model and part number.
- Operating Systems: The MegaRAID SAS RAID controller is compatible with several versions of Windows Server and Linux distributions, including Red Hat Enterprise Linux and SUSE Linux Enterprise Server. You can check the compatibility of your operating system by visiting the Dell Support website and entering the operating system and version.
- Storage Configuration: The MegaRAID SAS RAID controller supports SAS and SATA drives and can be configured as a RAID controller or as a pass-through device. The compatibility of the storage configuration will depend on the number of drives, the type of drives, and the specific RAID configuration. The MegaRAID SAS RAID controller supports RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, and 60.
It is recommended to check the official Dell Support website for the most up-to-date information on the compatibility of the Dell 405-AAOZ MegaRAID SAS RAID controller and to consult with a Dell representative for specific compatibility information for your specific use case.

SAS-SATA
SAS controllers facilitate the use of SATA drives to increase the storage capacity with extreme ease. You can get the best SAS SATA controllers here on allhdd.com. Our SAS SATA controllers are some of the best you can find around at the best prices.
SATA is the acronym for Serial Advanced Technology Attachment while the SCSI, nicknamed Scuzzy, is short for Serial Attached Small Computer System Interface.
SATA and SAS connectors help link up your computer components, including media and hard drives to the system's motherboard. SATA drives are more affordable and used for personal computing while fast and reliable SAS drives are the best fit for servers.
On the other hand, SAS controllers work flawlessly on SATA hard drives because both share identical infrastructure and possess related characteristics.
If you'd prefer speed over space, then a SAS-based hard drive is your best bet. However, SATA drives on the other hand, while lagging in terms of speed have a much larger storage capacity.
Data Transfer Speed
Throughput is the volume of data that a drive can move, process, or read and write in a specific amount of time. The drive's throughput is usually tested to measure its speed.
The Input/output operations per second (IOPS) may also be measured. However, the IOPS and throughput outcomes usually imply the same things about the drive.
While the SAS drives boast higher throughput than SATA drives; there are fewer general delays. But there is some overlap between the more high-speed SATA drives and slower SAS drives. On allhdd.com, you can shop some of the best SAS SATA controllers from well-known brands across the world.
While a handful of factors affect the drive's performance, the major factor affecting throughput is the revolution per minute (rpm). Consequently, the higher the rpm, the higher the drive's throughput.
The speed variation is most notable when dealing with large files. A SAS drive boasting 15000 rpm will most likely read and write a 1TB file faster than a SATA drive with 7200 rpm.
Most SATA-based drives' usual speed ranges from 5400 rpm to 7200 rpm, and most SAS-based drives run between 7200 rpm and 15000 rpm.

You can use a SATA drive for servers just as you would use a SAS drive. However, the SATA drive would deliver a slower performance and a higher probability of failing or hinting at a failure. This laxity could prove expensive to firms that depend on such drives.
A SAS drive has a mean time between failures (MTBF) that ranges from (1.2-1.6 million) hours of use at 113°F (45°C), while that of a SATA drive is about (700,000-1.2 million) hours of use at 77°F (25°C).
SATA disk drives offer many benefits, including the fact that they boast an unbeatable combination of low cost, high capacity, and performance. Taking advantage of this with SAS SATA controllers could bring a significant return on investment. You can count on a 24/7 customer care center for all issues regarding sales and delivery.
