Cisco UCS C240 M3 Specifications

Cisco UCS C240 M3 High-Density Rack Server (Small Form Factor Disk Drive Model)
BASE SERVER STANDARD CAPABILITIES and FEATURES
9
Storage controller ■ Embedded RAID (3 Gbs)
• Embedded SATA-only RAID controller, supporting up to four SATA-only
drives (RAID 0, 1, 10), or
• ROM5 RAID upgrade, supporting up to eight SAS+SATA HDDs or SSDs (RAID
0, 1, 10), or
• ROM55 RAID upgrade, supporting up to eight SAS+SATA HDDs or SSDs (RAID
0, 1, 5, 10).
Note that embedded RAID options can be supported only with the version of the
C240 M3 SFF server that has been configured with a 16-drive backplane.
■ Mezzanine Cards (6 Gbs) - two versions
• Cisco UCSC RAID SAS 2008M-8i Mezzanine Card supports up to 8 SAS+SATA
drives with the 16-drive backplane or 16 SAS+SATA drives with the 24-drive
backplane (this card supports a maximum of 16 drives for a RAID volume).
The card supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, and 50. This card has a product ID (PID)
of UCSC-RAID-11-C240.
• Cisco UCSC RAID SAS 2008M-8i Mezzanine Card supports up to 8 SAS+SATA
drives with the 16-drive backplane or 16 SAS+SATA drives with the 24-drive
backplane (this card supports a maximum of 16 drives for a RAID volume).
The card supports RAID 0, 1, and 10. This card has a product ID (PID) of
UCSC-RAID-MZ-240.
Note that mezzanine cards are used as follows:
• A mezzanine card in a 16-drive backplane system can support up to 8
drives. The reason for this is that the 16-drive backplane does not support
a SAS expander.
• A mezzanine card in a 24-drive backplane system can support up to 16
drives, due to a 16-drive limit for a RAID volume for this card.
■ PCIe RAID Controllers (6 Gbs)
• LSI MegaRAID SAS 9271-8i or 9271CV-8i 8-port PCIe RAID controller with
on-board 1 GB data cache and chassis-mounted (remote) supercap for data
cache power backup (supercap not present on 9271-8i), supporting RAID
levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60 and up to 24 internal SAS +SATA drives when
configured with 24-drive backplane. When used with a 16-drive backplane
version of the server, one controller can control up to 8 drives. Two
controllers must be installed to control 16 drives.
• LSI MegaRAID 9285CV-8e or 9286CV-8e 8-port PCIe RAID controller with
on-board 1 GB cache and chassis-mounted (remote) supercap for data
cache power backup, supporting RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60. Supports
8 external SAS ports (up to 240 external drives).
• Cisco Nytro MegaRAID 200 GB PCIe RAID controller with on-board 1 GB data
cache and 200 GB flash memory. The controller supports up to 24 drives on
the 24-drive backplane version of the server and supports RAID levels 0, 1,
5, 6, 10, 50, and 60. SAS + SATA drives are supported.
