8286-42A
PCIe3 x8 SAS RAID
internal adapter 6 Gb (FC
EJ0N; CCIN 57D7)
v FC EJ0N can be used to configure up to 12 disks on a single
controller.
v Disks can be configured as just a bunch of disks (JBOD) or
in RAID 0, 5, 6, and 10, depending on the OS support.
v SSDs must be configured in RAID 0, 5, 6, or 10.
v SSDs and HDDs can be mixed in the disk drive backplane,
but cannot be mixed in the same RAID array.
8286-41A or 8286-42A PCIe3 x8 SAS RAID
internal adapter 6 Gb (FC
EJ0S; Dual CCIN 57D7)
v FC EJ0S can be used to split the disk backplane into two sets
of 6 disks that use two controllers.
v HDDs can be configured as JBOD or in RAID 0, 5, 6, and 10
depending on the OS support.
v SSDs must be configured in RAID 0, 5, 6, or 10.
v SSDs and HDDs can be mixed within each side of a split
disk backplane, but cannot be mixed in the same RAID
array.
PCIe3 x8 cache SAS RAID
internal adapter 6 Gb
expanded function (FC
EJ0P; Dual CCIN 57D8)
v FC EJ0P can be used to configure up to 26 disks in the
8286-42A and up to 18 disks in the 8286-41A, with dual SAS
paths that use expanded function controllers and disk drive
backplane.
v SSDs and HDDs can be configured in RAID 0, 5, 6, 10, 5T2,
6T2, and 10T2 depending on the OS support. (JBOD is not
supported.)
v SSDs and HDDs can be mixed within the expanded function
disk drive backplane.
v Feature code EJ0P also allows two external SAS ports and
the attachment of an external 5887 disk drive enclosure.
