MegaRAID SAS 8408E
3Gb/s Eight-Port Internal SAS RAID Adapter
As the first-to-market eight-port Serial Attached SCSI RAID solution, the MegaRAID SAS 8408E offers advanced fault tolerant features for SAS drives, SATA II drives, or any combination of the two. Using a high-performance Intel I/O processor for optimum RAID performance and a PCI Express host interface for increased bandwidth, the MegaRAID SAS 8408E delivers an intelligent and robust RAID solution. In addition, this adapter supports 256MB DDRII SDRAM for data caching and an intelligent transportable battery backup (iTBBU) that protects cached data for up to 72 hours in the event of a complete power failure. The transportable cache module can even be moved to a new MegaRAID adapter with complete data retention.
