Product overview of H215J Dell PERC H200
The H215J Dell PERC H200 6GB PCI-Express SAS Raid Controller Card Only is a computer hardware component that is designed to help manage storage devices in a computer system. This article will provide an in-depth explanation of the H215J Dell PERC H200 6GB PCI-Express SAS Raid Controller Card Only, including its features, benefits, and how it works.
Features
The H215J Dell PERC H200 6GB PCI-Express SAS Raid Controller Card Only is a RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks) controller card that allows for the connection of SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) and SATA (Serial Advanced Technology Attachment) hard drives to a computer system. The card has two internal mini-SAS ports that support up to eight drives, as well as a PCI-Express interface that allows for high-speed data transfer. The H215J Dell PERC H200 6GB PCI-Express SAS Raid Controller Card Only also features a RAID controller that allows for RAID 0, 1, 10, and 5 configurations.
Benefits
The H215J Dell PERC H200 6GB PCI-Express SAS Raid Controller Card Only has several benefits for computer users. One of the primary benefits is its ability to improve system performance by allowing for the connection of high-speed SAS and SATA hard drives. This means that users can access and store data faster than they would with traditional hard drives. Additionally, the RAID controller allows for data redundancy, which means that if one hard drive fails, the data can be recovered from another drive in the RAID configuration.
Another benefit of the H215J Dell PERC H200 6GB PCI-Express SAS Raid Controller Card Only is its compatibility with a wide range of computer systems. The card is designed to work with Dell PowerEdge servers, but it can also be used with other computer systems that have a PCI-Express interface. This means that users can upgrade their existing systems with the card and take advantage of its benefits without having to purchase a new computer.
Works
The H215J Dell PERC H200 6GB PCI-Express SAS Raid Controller Card Only works by connecting to the computer system via the PCI-Express interface. Once connected, the card can detect and manage SAS and SATA hard drives that are connected to its mini-SAS ports. The card’s RAID controller allows users to configure the hard drives in a RAID 0, 1, 10, or 5 configuration, which determines how the data is stored and accessed on the drives.
The RAID 0 configuration is designed for maximum performance and allows for data to be striped across multiple hard drives. This means that data can be accessed faster than it would with a single hard drive. However, the downside to RAID 0 is that if one hard drive fails, all data on the array is lost.
The RAID 1 configuration is designed for data redundancy and allows for data to be mirrored across two hard drives. This means that if one hard drive fails, the data can be recovered from the other drive. However, RAID 1 does not provide any performance benefits.
The RAID 10 configuration is a combination of RAID 0 and RAID 1 and provides
