Description
Product overview of the Dell PKTKX SATA Controller
The PKTKX Dell PERC H730 is a RAID controller designed for Dell PowerEdge servers that support SAS and SATA drives. The PERC H730 is a powerful controller with a 12GB/s SAS interface, which is much faster than traditional SATA interfaces. This controller also features a 1GB non-volatile cache that helps improve performance and reduce latency.
PCI-E 3.0 X8 Interface
The PERC H730 controller uses the PCI-E 3.0 x8 interface, which provides high bandwidth and low latency communication between the controller and the host system. The x8 interface provides eight lanes of communication between the controller and the system, which allows for high-speed data transfer rates.
SAS and SATA Compatibility
The PERC H730 supports both SAS and SATA drives, which makes it a versatile controller that can be used in a variety of applications. SAS drives are typically used in enterprise-level applications, while SATA drives are more commonly used in consumer-level applications. The PERC H730 supports both types of drives, which allows for flexibility in the type of storage used in the server.
12GB/s SAS Interface
The PERC H730 has a 12GB/s SAS interface, which is much faster than traditional SATA interfaces. SAS drives are designed for high-performance applications and have faster data transfer rates than SATA drives. The 12GB/s SAS interface allows for faster data transfer rates between the drives and the controller, which can improve overall system performance.
1GB NV Cache
The PERC H730 features a 1GB non-volatile cache, which helps improve performance and reduce latency. The cache stores frequently accessed data, which can be retrieved quickly without having to access the drives. The non-volatile cache means that the data is retained even if the system loses power. This helps prevent data loss and improves system reliability.
Both Brackets Included
The PERC H730 comes with both brackets included, which allows for flexibility in installation. The controller can be installed in either a full-height or low-profile PCI-E slot, which allows for use in a variety of different server models.
Overall, the PKTKX Dell PERC H730 12GB PCI-E 3.0 X8 SAS SATA Controller is a powerful and versatile RAID controller that can be used in a variety of applications. The controller features a 12GB/s SAS interface, a 1GB non-volatile cache, and both brackets included for flexible installation. The PERC H730 is an excellent choice for enterprise-level applications that require high-performance and reliability.
