Onboard SATA controller
A SATA controller is integrated on the system board; up to four SATA hard disk
drives can be connected to the controller. The LSI Embedded MegaRAID
software (SATA Software RAID) supports RAID levels 0, 1 and 10.
For more information on configuring the controller, see section "Configuring the
onboard SATA controller" on page 79.
SAS/SATA RAID controller
The server is available with the following SAS/SATA RAID controllers for
operating the internal SAS/SATA HDDs:
– Modular RAID 0/1 controller with "Integrated RAID" (SAS IR) for SAS3.0
RAID levels 0 and 1 are supported for internal HDD configurations.
– Modular RAID 0/1 controller with "MegaRAID functionality"
(SAS MegaRAID) for SAS3.0
RAID levels 0, 1, 10, 1E, 5 and 50 are supported for internal HDD
configurations.
– Modular RAID 5/6 controller with "MegaRAID functionality"
(SAS MegaRAID) for SAS3.0
RAID levels 0, 1, 10, 1E, 5, 50, 6 and 60 are supported for internal HDD
configurations. As an option, a Flash backup unit (FBU) can save the
memory content even if the power fails. Cache memory size of 1GB or 2GB
are available.
I For more information on configuring the controller, see section
"Configuring the SAS/SATA RAID controller (PCIe expansion card)" on
page 80.
Further information on SAS/SATA RAID controllers is provided in the
"Modular RAID Controller Installation Guide" (on the Fujitsu manuals
server under x86 Servers - Expansion Cards - Storage Adapters - LSI RAID /
SCSI Controllers).
Further information on other SAS/SATA RAID controllers (e.g. for
operating external SAS/SATA HDDs or tape drives) is available on the
Fujitsu manuals server under x86 Servers - Expansion Cards - Storage
Adapters - LSI RAID / SCSI Controllers.
