HP 869085-001 Smart Array P816i-a SR Gen10 SAS Modular LH Controller

Product Description

The HP 869085-001, identified as the Smart Array P816i-a SR Gen10 SAS Modular LH Controller, is a high-performance storage controller designed to enhance the capabilities of HPE ProLiant Gen10 servers. This controller offers advanced RAID functionality, supporting various RAID levels to ensure data redundancy, performance, and availability. It utilizes the latest SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) interface, providing high-speed data transfer rates of up to 12Gb/s, which is critical for demanding storage applications and large datasets. Equipped with 4GB of Flash Backed Write Cache (FBWC), this controller significantly improves write performance by temporarily storing write data. The FBWC ensures that data is safely written to non-volatile memory, protecting it in the event of a power loss. The modular LH (Low-Height) form factor allows for flexible integration into compatible HPE server chassis, particularly those requiring a compact footprint. This controller is essential for building robust and efficient storage solutions within an enterprise environment. As a Gen10 Smart Array controller, the P816i-a SR integrates seamlessly with HPE's server management tools, offering simplified configuration, monitoring, and maintenance. It supports a wide range of SAS and SATA drives, providing flexibility in storage configurations. This controller is a key component for businesses seeking to optimize storage performance, ensure data protection through advanced RAID, and maintain high availability for their critical applications and services.
