Description
Product Overview of 749797-001 HPE Smart Array
HPE 749797-001 Smart Array P440/4GB FBWC is a storage controller manufactured by Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE). It is a hardware device that enables the management and control of data storage for servers and other computing devices. The controller is designed to support enterprise-level storage requirements and comes with a range of advanced features, such as RAID support, caching, and data protection. In this article, we will discuss in detail the features and capabilities of the HPE 749797-001 Smart Array P440/4GB FBWC.
PCI Express 3.0 x8 Interface
The HPE 749797-001 Smart Array P440/4GB FBWC is designed to interface with a server or other computing device through the PCI Express 3.0 x8 interface. This interface provides a high-speed, low-latency connection between the controller and the host device. The PCI Express 3.0 x8 interface is backward compatible with earlier versions of the PCI Express interface, which ensures compatibility with a wide range of computing devices.
Internal SAS Connectivity
The HPE 749797-001 Smart Array P440/4GB FBWC supports internal SAS connectivity, which enables it to connect to and manage SAS hard drives and other storage devices. SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) is a high-speed, high-bandwidth storage protocol that is widely used in enterprise-level storage systems. The controller supports SAS data transfer rates of up to 12 Gbps, which enables it to deliver high-performance storage management.
RAID Support
The HPE 749797-001 Smart Array P440/4GB FBWC supports RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks) configurations, which enable data to be stored across multiple hard drives for improved performance and data redundancy. The controller supports a wide range of RAID levels, including RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 5, RAID 6, RAID 10, and RAID 50. RAID configurations can be managed using the HPE Smart Storage Administrator software, which provides an intuitive graphical user interface for RAID configuration and management.
4GB Flash-Backed Write Cache (FBWC)
The HPE 749797-001 Smart Array P440/4GB FBWC comes with 4GB of Flash-Backed Write Cache (FBWC), which provides high-speed write performance and data protection. The FBWC uses flash memory to provide fast write performance, while also protecting data in the event of a power failure or other system failure. The FBWC ensures that data is safely stored in the cache until it can be written to disk, which helps to prevent data loss or corruption.
12Gbps SAS Data Transfer Rate
The HPE 749797-001 Smart Array P440/4GB FBWC supports SAS data transfer rates of up to 12 Gbps, which enables it to deliver high-performance storage management. This high-speed data transfer rate ensures that data can be quickly and efficiently transferred between the controller and storage devices, which improves system performance and responsiveness.
One-Port Design
The HPE 749797-001 Smart Array P440/4GB FBWC features a one-port design, which enables it to connect to a single SAS storage device. This design is ideal for smaller storage systems or configurations that do not require multiple storage devices. However, it can also be used in larger storage systems with multiple controllers and storage devices.
