MegaRAID 9440-8i and 9460-16i controller
Small and medium businesses (SMBs) deploying entry-level server platforms and workstations need affordable, reliable storage solutions.
The MegaRAID Tri-Mode Storage Adapter is a 12Gb/s SAS/SATA/PCIe (NVMe) controller card that addresses these needs by delivering
proven performance and RAID data protection for a range of non-business crticial applications. The MegaRAID Tri-Mode storage adapters
bring NVMe performance benefits to the storage tier by providing connectivity and data protection for SAS/SATA interfaces. Based on
the dual-core SAS3516 or SAS3508 RAID on Chip (ROC) and 72-bit DDR4-2133 SDRAM, these controllers provide bandwidth and IOPS
performance increases and are ideal for high-end servers utilizing internal storage or connecting to large-scale external storage enclosures.
NOTE: The MegaRAID 9440 and 9460 controllers are only supported when using Intel Xeon W Series CPUs.
Tri-Mode SerDes Technology enables operation of NVMe, SAS, or SATA storage devices in a single drive bay. All the 3 modes
concurrently serving NVMe, SAS, and SATA drives can be operated by a single controller. The controller negotiates between the speeds
and protocols to seamlessly work with any of the three types of storage devices. Tri-Mode support provides a non-disruptive way to
evolve existing data center infrastructure. By upgrading to a tri-mode controller, users can expand beyond SAS/SATA and use NVMe
without major changes to other system configurations. The MegaRAID Tri-Mode storage adapters support both REFCLK and SRIS based
NVMe x1, x2, and x4 devices.
