Performance and Transfer Speeds
The performance and transfer speeds of the Dell 405-AAHJ FD33XD Dual Expandable Raid Controller depends on several factors, including the disk drives used, the data transfer rate, and the RAID level implemented.
Performance:
- The controller supports a 12 Gbps SAS interface, allowing for high-speed data transfers.
- It supports RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, and 60.
- The dual-port design provides redundant data paths for improved reliability and fault tolerance.
Transfer Speeds:
- The maximum transfer speed will depend on the disk drives used with the controller and the RAID level implemented.
- A RAID 0 configuration with fast disk drives can achieve transfer speeds up to the limit of the SAS interface, which is 12 Gbps.
- Other RAID levels may have lower transfer speeds due to the overhead required for data protection.
