LSI Logic CC 05-50077-00 9560-16i 16PT Int 12Gb s Tri mode SATA+SAS+PCIe(NVMe)

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 9560-16i adapter, based on the SAS3916 high-port count PCIe 4.0 x8 RAID-on-Chip (RoC), delivers twice the performance of previous generations.

The 9560-16i 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 9560-16i 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 between speeds and protocols to seamlessly work with any of the three types of storage devices. Tri-Mode support provides a non-disruptive way to evolve existing data center infrastructure.

Key Features Include:

• Connect up to 240 SAS/SATA devices or 24 NVMe devices per controller
• Fits into rack-mounted servers with low-profile form factor and side-mounted SAS connectors
• Form-factor friendly cable exit
• Support critical, high-bandwidth applications with PCIe 4.0 connectivity
• Balance protection and performance for critical applications with RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60
• JBOD mode with RAID 0, 1, 10 and JBOD for SDS environments
• Add more protection and peace of mind with CacheVault flash cache protection
