Product Description
The IBM 97P6195, also known by its IBM Feature Code 5709, is a high-performance storage controller designed for enterprise servers. It utilizes the PCI-X bus interface, which provides significantly higher bandwidth compared to standard PCI, making it suitable for demanding I/O operations. This controller is specifically engineered to manage SCSI storage devices, offering advanced capabilities for data management and system reliability. This card features two channels of Ultra320 SCSI connectivity. Ultra320 SCSI is a high-speed interface capable of delivering up to 320MB/s per channel, ensuring rapid data transfer rates for connected hard drives or storage arrays. The dual-channel design allows for greater flexibility in configuring storage subsystems, potentially enabling higher throughput or more complex RAID configurations. The primary function of the 97P6195 is to provide RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks) capabilities. By supporting various RAID levels, it allows administrators to combine multiple physical disks into logical units to improve performance, provide data redundancy, or both. This is critical for mission-critical applications where data availability and integrity are paramount, offering protection against single drive failures and enhancing read/write speeds.
