Description
Product Overview
The 405-AADP Dell PERC H810 SAS 6GBPS PCI Express 2.0 RAID Controller is a high-performance storage controller designed for demanding enterprise-level applications. The RAID controller is used to manage multiple hard disk drives or solid-state drives (SSDs) to provide data redundancy, increased storage capacity, and improved data access speed. The controller is built to support Dell PowerEdge servers, which are widely used in data centers and enterprise-level environments.
PCI Express 2.0 Interface
The 405-AADP Dell PERC H810 SAS RAID controller comes with a PCI Express 2.0 interface that provides high-speed data transfer rates. The PCI Express 2.0 interface has a maximum data transfer rate of 5.0 GT/s (gigatransfers per second), which is twice the speed of the previous generation PCI Express 1.0 interface. This means that the RAID controller can transfer data at a rate of up to 500 MB/s (megabytes per second), which is ideal for high-performance applications that require fast data access and transfer.
SAS 6GBPS Interface
The 405-AADP Dell PERC H810 SAS RAID controller uses a SAS 6GBPS (gigabits per second) interface to connect to the hard drives or SSDs. The SAS interface is a serial interface that provides a high-speed data transfer rate and supports up to 128 devices. The SAS interface also supports hot-swapping, which allows the user to replace a failed drive without shutting down the system. The SAS 6GBPS interface is backward compatible with SAS 3GBPS and SAS 1.5GBPS interfaces, which means that the RAID controller can be used with older SAS drives.
RAID Levels Support
The 405-AADP Dell PERC H810 SAS RAID controller supports various RAID levels, including RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 5, RAID 6, RAID 10, and RAID 50. RAID 0 provides improved performance by striping data across multiple drives, but it does not provide any data redundancy. RAID 1 provides data redundancy by mirroring the data across two drives, but it does not provide any performance improvement. RAID 5 provides a good balance between performance and data redundancy by striping data across multiple drives with parity information, which allows for recovery of data if one drive fails. RAID 6 provides more data redundancy than RAID 5 by using two parity blocks, which allows for recovery of data if two drives fail. RAID 10 combines RAID 1 and RAID 0 by mirroring two sets of striped drives, which provides both improved performance and data redundancy. RAID 50 combines RAID 5 and RAID 0 by striping data across multiple RAID 5 arrays, which provides improved performance and data redundancy.
1GB NV Cache
The 405-AADP Dell PERC H810 SAS RAID controller comes with a 1GB NV (non-volatile) cache, which is used to temporarily store data that is being read from or written to the hard drives or SSDs. The NV cache is non-volatile, which means that the data is retained even if the power is turned off. The NV cache provides improved performance by reducing the amount of time required to access the hard drives or SSDs. The NV cache is also used to protect the data in case of a power failure, by storing the data that is being written to the hard drives or SSDs.
