Product Description
The HP 726908-B21, identified as the H240 Smart Host Bus Adapter, is a high-performance storage connectivity solution for HP ProLiant servers. It leverages the latest SAS 12Gb/s interface, offering double the throughput of 6Gb/s SAS, which is crucial for maximizing the performance of modern SSDs and high-capacity HDDs. The adapter connects to the server via a PCI Express 3.0 x8 slot, ensuring a high-bandwidth connection that prevents bottlenecks during intensive data operations. This HBA is classified as a 'Smart' HBA, indicating that it offers more than just basic HBA functionality. It includes support for essential RAID levels, specifically RAID 0 (striping for performance), RAID 1 (mirroring for redundancy), and RAID 10 (a combination of striping and mirroring for both performance and redundancy). This allows for flexible storage configurations that balance data protection needs with performance requirements, all managed through the adapter's firmware or HP's server management tools. The HP H240 is designed for seamless integration into HP ProLiant server environments, providing a reliable and efficient way to connect internal storage devices. It is an ideal choice for businesses looking to upgrade their server storage infrastructure with faster, more capable connectivity, supporting demanding applications such as virtualization, databases, and file serving. The inclusion of a standard bracket ensures compatibility with most server chassis.
