DE VERSION

Hardware RAID is data protection and application acceleration technology delivered on PCI Express based option cards with related firmware, drivers, utilities and management software. Enterprise hardware RAID cards have onboard capabilities to perform parity generation and RAID recovery operations, as well as data, memory and bus management. Software RAID, a subset of the features delivered in hardware RAID, is usually delivered as part of an operating system and relies on system resources, processors, and memory.

This document is the primary reference and user’s guide for the LSI MegaRAID SATA+SAS RAID controllers based on the 6Gb/s SAS/SATA RAID-on-a-chip devices. This document contains complete installation instructions for these RAID controllers and includes specifications for them. The 6Gb/s MegaRAID SATA+SAS RAID controllers bring 6.0 Gb/s Serial Attached SCSI and 6.0 Gb/s SATA III performance to host adapter, workstation, and server designs. These controllers support internal storage devices and external storage devices, allowing you to use a system that supports enterprise-class SAS drives and desktop-class SATA III drives.

LSI MegaRAID CacheCade Pro 2.0 software promises to be the answer to IT managers’ serious pain points with storage, those related to random I/O performance.

This guide describes the CVFM02 module and explains how to attach the module directly to the MegaRAID SAS 9266-4i RAID controller and the MegaRAID SAS 9266-8i RAID controller. In addition, this guide documents how to connect the CVFM02 module by cable to a CacheVault Power Module 02 (CVPM02) module that is mounted on a remote mount board. The CVFM02 module is a USB flash module that provides cache offload capability to protect cached data in case of host power loss or server failure. The CVFM02 module is part of the CacheVault Module Kit LSICVM01, which also includes a CVPM02 module, a clip, and a cable. The CVFM02 module attaches directly to the RAID controller, and then it connects by cable to a remotely located CVPM02 module. The CVPM02 module is a super-capacitor pack that provides power for the backup of your data.
