Delivering unparalleled RAID performance for next-generation servers and storage
Today's data center, cloud and High-performance computing environment not only need to increase storage capacity to process large amounts of data, but also face the challenge of protection and deliver data as soon as possible to meet the needs of applications and end users. To address these performance requirements as capacity expands, Botong's latest 6Gb/s SAS RAID controller provides intelligent performance, enterprise RAID data protection, and validated interoperability with the latest server platform based on the PCI Express 3.0 specification. MegaRAID SAS 9286CV-8e has eight external ports and can provide two 800MHz PowerPC processors. 1-bit DDRIII interface for kernel and driver 72GB cache. Provided by LSI SAS 2208 to support dual core ROC, the 9286CV-8e controller includes the latest PCI Express 3.0 and 6Gb/s SAS technology, designed to use high-performance SAS to configure external storage chassis hard drives, high-capacity SATA hard drives, or application acceleration SSDs, or to build more complex configurations using Broadcom 6Gb/s SAS switch products.
MegaRAID CacheVault technology
MegaRAID CacheVault flash protection uses NAND Wuni, which is powered by a super large statistical device, to help protect data stored in the cache memory of the MegaRAID controller. This module does not require the use of traditional lithium-ion battery PCI RAID controllers used to protect DRAM cache. The RAID controller automatically writes data from the cache to the storage in the event of a power failure in the flash memory, while the supercapacitor is in the process. When the power is restored, DRAM will be restored from flash memory and the system will continue to operate without losing data. The benefits of this technology are the elimination of hardware and LiON battery related maintenance, a reduction in total cost of ownership throughout the entire lifecycle of the adapter, and more environmentally friendly cache protection.
Support for advanced software options
The 6Gb/s MegaRAID controller series is designed to support advanced software options such as enhanced performance and data protection capabilities for white box channel partners. These new software options help end users solve critical business challenges while helping to achieve higher IT investment returns. MegaRAID CacheCache™ Pro 2.0 software and MegaRAID Fast path software can improve the transaction I/O performance of solid-state disk configurations, while MegaRAID Recovery software and MegaRAID SafeStore™ Software can achieve enhanced data protection and security.
Intuitive RAID management utility
MegaRAID Management Suite™ The software provides a basic tool product for managing MegaRAID, whether deployed in enterprises or small businesses. Botong provides a range of applications and tools, including pre boot setup utilities and a comprehensive online RAID management utility. This application allows administrators to adjust the view level of SAS or SATA topology from system hosts, controllers, and disk enclosures to logical and physical drives. These tools can be extended to enterprise deployments to make it easier to configure, monitor, and manage RAID and JBOD volumes locally or through LAN networks.
