Description

The LSI LOGIC 3801E is a high-performance 8-port SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) Host Bus Adapter (HBA). This adapter is designed to provide servers with direct connectivity to SAS and SATA storage devices, enabling efficient data access and management. It utilizes the PCI Express (PCIe) x8 interface, which offers substantial bandwidth to support multiple high-speed storage devices without becoming a bottleneck. Each of the eight SAS ports on the 3801E operates at a speed of 3Gb/s, allowing for rapid data transfer between the server and connected storage. This makes it an excellent choice for expanding storage capacity in servers, connecting to external storage arrays, or implementing RAID configurations (often in conjunction with a separate RAID controller or software RAID). The HBA functionality ensures direct access to drives, which can be beneficial for certain operating systems and applications that require direct hardware control. This adapter is commonly found in servers requiring robust storage connectivity for applications such as databases, file servers, and virtualization platforms. Its ability to handle multiple drives and high data throughput makes it a versatile component for enhancing server storage capabilities. The LSI Logic brand is known for its reliability and performance in the storage connectivity market.
