Product Description
The Intel RES2CV360 is a powerful storage expansion solution designed to dramatically increase the number of SAS and SATA drives that can be connected to a server. With an impressive 36 ports, this card is ideal for building high-density storage systems, such as those found in large data centers, cloud storage solutions, or high-performance computing environments. It connects to a host system via a PCI Express interface, typically requiring a host RAID controller or HBA to manage the drives connected to the expander. Operating at 6Gb/s per port, the RES2CV360 supports both SAS and SATA drives, offering flexibility in drive selection. This expander card allows a single host controller to manage a much larger pool of drives than it would normally support, making it a cost-effective way to scale storage capacity. It is specifically designed for integration into 2U and 4U server chassis, where space is often at a premium, and high drive counts are desired. The Intel RES2CV360 is crucial for scenarios requiring massive storage capacity, such as JBOD (Just a Bunch Of Disks) configurations or when building custom storage arrays. It simplifies the cabling and management of large numbers of drives by consolidating connectivity points. This card is a key component for IT infrastructure that needs to scale storage efficiently and economically, providing the backbone for extensive data storage solutions.
