Key Features
- One or two 8087 connectors for up to eight internal SAS/SATA ports
- x8 PCI Express* Generation 31 interface for fast communication with the server board
- LSI SAS2308 IOC controller providing SAS 2.0 compliance, including 6 Gb/s data transfer and compatibility with SAS or SATA drives
Low Cost Entry-Level or Mainstream RAID
The Intel® Integrated RAID Module RMS25KB080 and RMS25KB040 in a small MD2-compliant PCIe RAID card that allows for an excellent entry-level RAID or JBOD-mode solution. This high-throughput RAID controller provides SAS capability and offers compatibility with 6 Gb/s and 3 Gb/s SAS and SATA hard drives, and SAS expander devices.
While many other SAS controllers are driven by large RAID software stacks between the host CPU and controller, the Intel Integrated RAID Modules RMS25KB080 and RMS25KB040 use the embedded CPU in the LSI 2308 ASIC to perform RAID 0, 1, and 1E/10 operations. With the reduction in RAID overhead, the Intel® Integrated RAID Module RMS25KB family offers superior internal READ/WRITE performance.
Target Applications
The Intel Integrated RAID Module RMS25KB family is categorized as an entry-level product.
