RAID Support
The HPE 749798-001 Smart Array P441/4GB FBWC 12Gb 2-Ports PCIE 3.0 x8 SAS Storage Controller supports various RAID levels, including RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 5, RAID 6, RAID 10, RAID 50, and RAID 60. RAID 0 provides the highest level of performance and capacity, but no data redundancy. RAID 1 provides data redundancy by mirroring data across two drives, while RAID 5 provides data redundancy by using parity data distributed across all drives in the array. RAID 6 is similar to RAID 5 but uses two sets of parity data, providing higher data redundancy. RAID 10 combines the performance benefits of RAID 0 with the data redundancy of RAID 1 by mirroring data across two sets of drives. RAID 50 and RAID 60 provide data redundancy by using a combination of striping and parity across multiple RAID sets.
Management Software
The HPE 749798-001 Smart Array P441/4GB FBWC 12Gb 2-Ports PCIE 3.0 x8 SAS Storage Controller is managed using the HPE Smart Storage Administrator (SSA) software. The SSA provides a web-based interface that allows users to configure and manage storage resources, monitor storage performance, and perform maintenance tasks. The SSA supports a range of operating systems, including Windows, Linux, and VMware.
