Intel® RAID Controllers for Select Intel® Xeon® Processor
Based Server Solutions
As big data continues to get bigger, so does the need for high-performance RAID
solutions. Content and Web Hosting Appliances, Security Appliances, Financial
Institutions, Cloud Service Providers, and Enterprise IT Customers are seeking
high-uptime RAID solutions for mass storage, with maximum reliability and data
integrity. Minimizing downtime and eliminating data loss are major priorities for
these high-intensity workloads. The tri-mode family of Intel® RAID Controllers
includes modules and adapters, all of which support NVMe*.
Intel® RAID Controllers: Modules (RMSP3) vs. Adapters (RSP3)
• Intel® RAID Modules are designed for select 2U Intel® Xeon® processor-based
server solutions, aording up to 16 ports of PCIe*/SAS/SATA connectivity
without taking up a standard add-in card PCIe slot, for a highly integrated
conguration.
• Intel® RAID Adapters come in a low-prole MD2 standard PCIe form-factor, and
are PCIe compliant for exibility of conguration and use in any system.
Support for the NVMe* Ecosystem
Tri-mode Intel RAID Controllers bring PCIe NVMe to hardware RAID. With tri-mode
Intel RAID, data centers can deploy high-performance NVMe storage solutions with
the reliability of hardware RAID, as well as SAS and SATA storage solutions at high
IOPS, high throughput, and low latency.
Key Features
• Support for NVMe, SAS, and SATA
• RAID levels: 0/1/10/5, plus RAID levels 50/6/60 for cards ending in “F”
• 4GB DDR4 Cache Backup (for cards ending in “F”)
• SuperCapacitor Kit enables Maintenance-Free Cache Backup, reducing
maintenance costs due to regular battery replacement (for cards ending in “F”)
• Optional Self-Encrypting Drive Support enables hardware disk encryption
services on capable drives (for cards ending in “F”)
