High Performance The MegaRAID SAS 9361-8i offers two 1.2GH z PowerPC processor cores and a 72-bit DDRIII interface that drives 1GB cache memory. Powered by the LSI SAS 3108 dual-core ROC, it includes the latest PCI Express 3.0 and 12Gbps SAS technology. Offering up to double the data transfer rate of 6Gbps SAS solutions, 12Gbps SAS allows the SAS infrastructure to deliver bandwidth that can fully utilize that of PCI Express 3.0 with a single controller card. general information Enterprise Data Protection Standard support for the most popular RAID levels and accessories, including RAID 5, RAID 6, and CacheVault Flash cache protection module (not included), further strengthens the data protection capabilities of the MegaRAID SAS 9361-8i.
A new enterprise feature employed by the 12Gbps MegaRAID SAS controllers is advanced drive diagnostic technology. In the event of a physical drive failure, the drive is placed in shield state and the MegaRAID controller starts drive diagnostics to determine if the drive is indeed failed or can be restored. This saves customers time, money and lost compute time associated with transient drive failures and unnecessary drive returns. general information Support for Advanced Software Options The family of 12Gbps MegaRAID controllers are designed to support Avago advanced software options that provide system integrators and VARs with enhanced performance and data protection capabilities.
These software options help enable end users to address key business challenges while helping to deliver a higher return on their IT investments. MegaRAID CacheCade Pro 2.0 software (optional) and MegaRAID Fast Path software (included) boost transactional I/O performance of solid state disk configurations, while SafeStore software enables enhanced data protection and security when used with encryption capable devices. general information Easy Installation The MegaRAID SAS 9361-8i fits into rack-mounted servers with a low-profile form factor and side-mounted SAS connectors.
