PCIe3 RAID SAS quad-port 6 Gb Adapter (FC EJ0J; CCIN 57B4)
Learn about the specifications and operating system requirements for the feature code (FC) EJ0J adapter.
Overview
The PCIe3 RAID SAS quad-port 6 Gb Adapter is a PCI Express (PCIe), generation 3, RAID SAS adapter
that has a low-profile, short-form factor, but packaged for full height installation. The adapter is used in
high-performance and high-density, serial attached SCSI (SAS) applications. It supports the attachment of
SAS disk and SAS tape by using four mini SAS high-density (HD) x4 connectors that allow the physical
links to be used in various narrow and wide-port configurations. SAS tape attachment is only supported
in a single adapter configuration and cannot be mixed with SAS disk on the same adapter. The adapter
does not have write cache. Figure 23 on page 65 shows the PCIe3 RAID SAS quad-port 6 Gb Adapter.
