RS2BL080, 1122933, 735858210140
The Intel RAID Controller RS2BL080, a first-generation 6G SAS adapter incorporating LSI* MegaRAID* technology, offers unprecedented performance with exceptional data protection and design flexibility. Features including LSI SAS2108 6Gb/s RAID on Chip (ROC) silicon and a native PCI Express* Generation 2 architecture allow for significant performance gains for both 3Gb/s and 6Gb/s drive-based solutions. Data protection and availability are enhanced by new features including Decision Feedback Equalization for greater signal integrity, enhanced diagnostics, and more robust error reporting.
The Intel RAID Controller RS2BL080 is a powerful internal 6Gb/s SAS, 3Gb/s, or 3Gb/s SATA RAID solution for mainstream use. It can connect up to eight SAS or SATA hard drives directly, or up to thirty two using SAS expanders. This adapter can also support an optional Intel RAID Smart Battery, AXXRSBBU7, which protects cached data by providing power to the module in the event of server or power failure. Available in two models a standard model and one with added Self-Encrypting Drive (SED) support.
Features and benefits
| Exceptional data protection |
Supports data redundancy using SAS or SATA hard disk drives
through mirroring, parity, and double parity (RAID levels 1, 5, and 6) plus striping capability for spans (RAID levels 10, 50, and 60). |
| Inside-the-box design flexibility |
With a true MD2 form factor, this adapter is ideal for low-profile height and half-length adapter slots. Eight internal 6 Gb/s SAS ports allow connection to 6Gb/s or 3Gb/s high-performance SAS drives, high-capacity SATA drives or a combination of both. |
| Excellent performance |
LSI SAS2108 ROC technology, x8 PCI Express Generation 2 host interface and 800 MHz cache enhances the performance of mainstream applications. |
| Outstanding availability |
Delivers proactive drive monitoring and automatic error correction.
An optional battery backup maintains data without the need for an uninterruptible power supply. |
| Increased IT productivity |
