Dell WX636 PERC 6/i Dual Channel PCI-Express Integrated SAS RAID Controller is a hardware component that is designed to manage and control the data storage system in PowerEdge servers. It is a vital component that ensures the efficiency, reliability, and safety of the storage system in a server. In this article, we will discuss the Dell WX636 PERC 6/i Dual Channel PCI-Express Integrated SAS RAID Controller in detail.
What is a SAS RAID ControllerA SAS RAID Controller is a hardware component that is responsible for managing and controlling the data storage system in a server. RAID stands for Redundant Array of Independent Disks. The primary function of a RAID controller is to group multiple physical hard drives into a logical array of storage devices. This logical array can be used as a single storage device with increased performance, reliability, and safety. SAS stands for Serial Attached SCSI, which is a high-performance interface used for connecting hard drives to a server.
FeaturesThe Dell WX636 PERC 6/i Dual Channel PCI-Express Integrated SAS RAID Controller is a high-performance RAID controller designed to deliver excellent storage management and control in PowerEdge servers. Some of the key features of this RAID controller are:
Dual Channel SAS InterfacesThe Dell WX636 PERC 6/i Dual Channel PCI-Express Integrated SAS RAID Controller comes with two SAS interfaces that can be used to connect up to 32 hard drives to a single server. This allows for increased storage capacity and flexibility.
PCI-Express InterfaceThe Dell WX636 PERC 6/i Dual Channel PCI-Express Integrated SAS RAID Controller is designed to connect to a server using a PCI-Express interface. This interface provides high-speed data transfer between the RAID controller and the server.
RAID LevelsThe Dell WX636 PERC 6/i Dual Channel PCI-Express Integrated SAS RAID Controller supports various RAID levels, including RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 5, RAID 6, RAID 10, and RAID 50. These RAID levels provide different levels of performance, reliability, and safety.
