Product Overview of PCI-E Low Profile SAS Raid Controller
The 9280-8E LSI Logic MegaRAID is a high-performance, low-profile SAS RAID controller that provides enterprise-class data protection, performance, and scalability. This RAID controller is ideal for use in high-end servers and workstations that require large-scale storage solutions.
LSI Logic MegaRAID 6GB SAS RAID Controller
The LSI Logic MegaRAID 6GB SAS RAID Controller is a powerful storage solution that is designed for enterprise-class environments. It provides high-performance data transfer rates of up to 6GB per second, making it ideal for use in high-bandwidth applications such as data centers, cloud computing environments, and large-scale storage arrays.
8-Port PCI-E Low Profile SAS Raid Controller
The 9280-8E LSI Logic MegaRAID features eight SAS ports, which provide high-speed connectivity for up to eight SAS or SATA hard drives. This allows you to easily expand your storage capacity and improve your data transfer speeds. The RAID controller supports a wide range of SAS and SATA hard drives, including both 2.5-inch and 3.5-inch form factors.
512MB Cache
The 9280-8E LSI Logic MegaRAID features 512MB of cache memory, which helps to improve overall system performance and reduce latency. The cache memory acts as a buffer between the host system and the hard drives, allowing the RAID controller to more efficiently manage data transfers and improve overall system responsiveness.
Battery Backup
The 9280-8E LSI Logic MegaRAID also includes a battery backup unit (BBU), which helps to protect your data in the event of a power outage or system failure. The BBU provides temporary power to the RAID controller and cache memory, allowing it to flush any data that is still in the cache to the hard drives. This helps to prevent data loss and improve system reliability.
Low Profile Design
The low-profile design of the 9280-8E LSI Logic MegaRAID makes it ideal for use in space-constrained environments, such as small form factor servers and workstations. The RAID controller features a small form factor and a low-profile bracket, which makes it easy to install and integrate into your existing system.
Advanced RAID Features
The 9280-8E LSI Logic MegaRAID supports a wide range of RAID levels, including RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, and 60. It also includes advanced features such as hot spare support, automatic rebuild, and online capacity expansion, which help to improve data protection, system availability, and overall storage efficiency.
In Summary, the 9280-8E LSI Logic MegaRAID 6GB 8-Port PCI-E Low Profile SAS Raid Controller with 512MB Cache and Battery is a powerful storage solution that is designed for use in high-end servers and workstations. It provides high-performance data transfer rates, a wide range of advanced features, and a low-profile design that makes it ideal for use in space-constrained environments. Whether you are looking to expand your storage capacity, improve your system performance, or enhance your data protection capabilities, the 9280-8E LSI Logic MegaRAID is a great choice for your enterprise-class storage needs.
