Product Overview of Dell 403-BBMY 9311-8I 8-port
The Dell 403-BBMY 9311-8I is an internal 8-port SAS PCI-E 3.0 X8 host bus adapter. It is designed to provide high-performance storage connectivity for servers and workstations. In this article, we will discuss the various features and specifications of the Dell 403-BBMY 9311-8I host bus adapter in detail.
SAS Technology Overview
SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) is a technology that enables communication between storage devices such as hard disk drives (HDDs) and solid-state drives (SSDs) and computer systems. SAS is a successor to parallel SCSI technology and offers several advantages over its predecessor, including faster data transfer rates, improved reliability, and scalability.
PCI-E 3.0 X8 Interface
The Dell 403-BBMY 9311-8I host bus adapter uses a PCI-E 3.0 X8 interface to connect to the server or workstation. The PCI-E 3.0 interface offers high-speed data transfer rates of up to 8GT/s per lane, which results in a total bandwidth of 64Gbps for an X8 connection. This high bandwidth enables the host bus adapter to deliver fast and reliable storage connectivity to the server or workstation.
8-Port SAS Connectivity
The Dell 403-BBMY 9311-8I host bus adapter has eight internal SAS ports, which enable it to connect up to eight SAS or SATA drives to the server or workstation. The eight ports are compatible with both SAS and SATA drives, which means that users have the flexibility to use either type of drive as per their requirements.
12Gbps Data Transfer Rates
The Dell 403-BBMY 9311-8I host bus adapter supports data transfer rates of up to 12Gbps, which is twice the speed of the previous SAS standard (6Gbps). The high data transfer rates enable faster access to data stored on the drives, which results in improved performance for applications and faster data backups.
RAID Support
The Dell 403-BBMY 9311-8I host bus adapter supports RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks) configurations, which enable users to create redundant storage setups for improved reliability and data protection. The host bus adapter supports various RAID configurations, including RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 10, and RAID 5.
Compatibility
The Dell 403-BBMY 9311-8I host bus adapter is compatible with a wide range of server and workstation systems, including Dell PowerEdge servers, Dell Precision workstations, and other systems that support PCI-E 3.0 X8 host bus adapters. The host bus adapter is also compatible with a range of operating systems, including Windows, Linux, and VMware.
Overall, the Dell 403-BBMY 9311-8I 8-port Internal 12GBPS SAS PCI-E 3.0 X8 Host Bus Adapter is a high-performance storage connectivity solution designed for servers and workstations. Its 8-port SAS connectivity, support for high data transfer rates, RAID configurations, and compatibility with a wide range of systems and operating systems make it a versatile and reliable choice for demanding storage applications.
