Product Name / Description
RAID Controller (1GB, RAID0/1/5/6)
LSI MegaRAID SAS 9285CV-8e
RAID0/1/5/6/10/50/60, 1GB, Ext. 8, PCIe 3.0 x8, SAS 6Gb/s,
SATA 6Gb/s, flash cache protection modules included
NOTE:
Only one external RAID controller can be installed when installing an internal RAID Controller with
RAID Backup Unit.
To configure a large-capacity RAID array, it is recommended to configure in RAID 6 or RAID 60 in
order to minimize the risk of becoming multiple hard drives failure during the RAID rebuilding process.
It is recommended to set RAID array configuration drives less than eight in order to minimize the risk
of becoming multiple hard drives failure.
