12.4.4  PERC H700 
If you want an internal RAID solution, select the PERC H700 or PERC 6/i. The PERC H700 card has its 
own processor with a PCI Express Gen2 host interface and DDR2 memory and installs into the 
dedicated internal storage slot. A battery is also available for backup. It supports the internal 6 Gb/s 
backplane interface for internal storage options (SAS, SATA, or SSD HDD). The PowerEdge T610 
supports both 256MB and 512MB cache options on the internal H700.
