Cisco UCS C240 M3 High-Density Rack Server (Small Form Factor Disk Drive Model)

CONFIGURING the SERVER
Approved Configurations
(1) 1-CPU Configurations
Mezzanine cards are not supported for 1-CPU configurations, Therefore, only the following RAID
controllers are supported for single-CPU configurations:
Embedded RAID (on motherboard)
LSI MegaRAID SAS 9266-8i
LSI MegaRAID 9266CV-8i
(2) 2-CPU Configurations
Select an embedded RAID option from Table 5, one mezzanine RAID controller from Table 6 on
page 18, or one PCIe RAID controller from Table 7 on page 18. You may also select an
appropriate optional RAID configuration listed in Table 7 on page 18.
Caveats
The mezzanine controller is not available for 1-CPU configurations.
If you choose embedded RAID or a mezzanine card RAID controller, all five of the PCIe card
slots are still available for adding optional PCIe cards.
The optional PCIe RAID controllers are all half-height PCIe cards. If you choose one of these
cards, four PCIe card slots will be available for adding an optional PCIe card.
Note that only a single Cisco UCS P81E Virtual Interface Card (VIC) card (a full-height PCIe
card) is supported and it must be installed in the full-length, full-height PCIe slot (slot 1) on
riser 1. So take this into account when populating RAID controller cards.
You can choose only one RAID controller (embedded RAID, mezzanine RAID, or a plug-in PCIe
RAID controller).
You can choose an optional RAID configuration (RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, or 10), which is
preconfigured at the factory. The RAID level you choose must be an available RAID choice for
the controller selected. RAID levels 50 and 60 are supported, although they are not available
as configuration options.
RAID support is dependent on the backplane:
A system with 16-drive backplane with no SAS expander:
Supports up to 8 drives with ROM5 and ROM55 embedded RAID upgrades
Supports up to 8 drives with mezzanine cards
Supports up to 8 drives for each 9266-8i and 9266CV-8i controller
Supports up to 4 SATA-only drives if no ROM upgrade, mezzanine card, or plug-in
PCIe card chosen
A system with 24-drive backplane with SAS expander:
Does not support ROM5 and ROM55 embedded RAID upgrades
Supports up to 16 drives with mezzanine cards
