Product Description
The HP 871039-002, identified as the Smart Array E208i-a, is an enterprise-grade RAID controller designed to manage and enhance storage performance and data protection in servers and workstations. It connects to the system's motherboard via a PCI Express (PCIe) slot, providing a high-bandwidth connection for efficient data transfer between the controller and the CPU. This controller supports both SATA/600 and SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) interfaces, offering versatility in drive connectivity. It operates at a high SAS speed of 12Gb/s, ensuring that connected drives can perform at their maximum potential. The 'i' in E208i-a typically denotes an internal controller, meaning it's designed to connect to drives within the server chassis. It supports a wide range of RAID levels, including RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, and 60, allowing administrators to configure storage arrays for optimal performance, data redundancy, or a balance of both. As a Smart Array controller, the E208i-a provides advanced features for managing storage, including hot-plug support, online capacity expansion, and RAID level migration. It is crucial for environments that require high availability and data integrity, protecting against drive failures and improving overall storage throughput. This controller is a key component for building robust and reliable storage solutions.
