PCI Express 2.0 to Eight-port 6Gb/s SAS RAID Adapter for SSDs and HDDs
Enterprise-Class RAID Adapters Providing the Highest in Performance and Data Protection with Next-Generation Solid State Disks (SSDs) and Hard Disk Drives (HDDs)
Today's business-critical servers require more protection and manageability. An enterprise-class RAID solution needs to provide the greatest level of data protection, highest performance and easy-to-use management tools. PMC-Sierra's maxRAID family of RAID adapters combines the PM8013 maxSAS RAID-on-Chip (RoC) controller and the maxRAID stack to accommodate the most rigorous server environments and supports the high-performing SAS/SATA SSDs, 6 Gb/s SAS/SATA disk drives, as well as legacy 3 Gb/s SAS and 3/1.5 Gb/s SATA disk drives.
Always Available Data
Ensuring data is protected is the highest priority for storage. The maxRAID BR5225-80 RAID adapters offers RAID 1 and 5 for SSD and HDD configurations. Hot spare support ensures an immediate rebuild and protection of data in the case of a drive failure.
Easy-to-Use Management of Storage and Data
The maxRAID Storage Manager provides an interface that allows users to easily create and manage arrays, as well as monitor the status of all logical and physical devices on any SAS connection. The management tool suite enables local and remote administrators to manage all aspects of the system through an intuitive browser-based GUI, pre-boot configuration via BIOS/UEFI or a command-line interface (CLI).
Designed for Performance
The core of the BR5225-80 RAID adapter is the high-performance PM8013 SRC 8x6G RoC controller. With 16GB/s internal throughput via the RoCstar contention-free architecture and three integrated MIPS processors, performance reaches new levels for transaction-based operations or streaming large amounts of data or media. The multi-threading MIPS 34K cores deliver performance higher than any other RAID solution.
