Broadcom MegaRAID 9560-8i SAS Controller - 12Gb/s SAS, Serial ATA - PCI Express 4.0 x8 - Plug-in Card - RAID Supported - 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60, JBOD RAID Level - 1 x SFF-8654 - 8 Total SAS Port(s) - 8 SAS Port(s) Internal - Linux, PC - 4 GB
The MegaRAID 9500 series is the industry's first PCIe Gen 4.0 RAID adapter family, offering PCIe Gen 4.0 host and storage interfaces. The MegaRAID 9560-8i adapter, based on the SAS3908 high-port count PCIe 4.0 x8 RAID-on-Chip (RoC), delivers twice the performance of previous generations.
The 9560-8i is compatible with existing PCIe SFF-8639 Module (U.2) backplanes, allowing users to boost performance for today's ever increasing bandwidth environments. Coupled with two industry initiatives expanding the deployment of Tri-Mode SerDes technology, which enables the operation of NVMe, SAS or SATA devices in a single drive bay, the 9560-8i is instrumental in getting the most performance and flexibility out of U.3 backplanes:
- SFF-TA-10001 Specification (U.3), which defines a common bay type for SAS, SATA and NVMe
- Universal Backplane Management (UBM), which defines a common backplane control and management framework
With Tri-Mode SerDes technology, the adapter negotiates
