Description
Product Overview of Broadcom SAS9460-16I
SAS9460-16I Broadcom 12GBPS SAS/SATA NVME Tri-Mode PCI-E Raid Controller is a storage controller card that provides high-performance data transfer between a server and its storage devices. This PCI-E card is designed for servers and workstations that require high-speed data transfer and reliable storage solutions.
SAS/SATA NVMe Tri-Mode
The SAS9460-16I Broadcom 12GBPS SAS/SATA NVME Tri-Mode PCI-E Raid Controller supports SAS/SATA and NVMe storage devices, making it a tri-mode controller. This means that it can work with traditional SAS and SATA hard drives, as well as newer, faster NVMe solid-state drives (SSDs).
SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) and SATA (Serial Advanced Technology Attachment) are two different types of data transfer protocols used for connecting storage devices to a computer system. SAS is used in enterprise-level systems and provides faster data transfer rates than SATA. SATA, on the other hand, is used in consumer-grade systems and provides slower data transfer rates than SAS.
NVMe (Non-Volatile Memory Express) is a newer protocol that was designed specifically for SSDs. NVMe SSDs are faster and more efficient than traditional SAS and SATA SSDs because they use a different type of interface and protocol.
