Product Description
The HP 749999-001, also designated as the H244br Smart Host Bus Adapter (HBA), is a high-performance storage controller designed to deliver 12Gb/s SAS connectivity. This adapter is crucial for servers requiring fast and reliable access to internal or external storage devices, supporting a wide range of SAS drives and enclosures. The dual-port configuration enhances flexibility, allowing for connections to multiple storage targets or for redundant paths in certain configurations. Built with a PCI Express (PCIe) 3.0 x8 interface, the H244br provides the necessary bandwidth to fully leverage the 12Gb/s SAS speeds, ensuring that storage I/O operations do not become a bottleneck for demanding applications. This makes it suitable for environments such as enterprise databases, virtualization hosts, and high-performance computing clusters where rapid data access is paramount. As a 'Smart' HBA, the 749999-001 integrates with HP's management software, offering advanced monitoring, configuration, and diagnostic tools for simplified administration. While its primary function is HBA operation, it often includes support for basic RAID levels (e.g., RAID 0, RAID 1), providing options for data redundancy or performance enhancement for directly attached storage. This makes the H244br a versatile and powerful solution for expanding and optimizing storage performance in HP ProLiant servers and other compatible systems.
