RAID C600 Upgrade Key option supporting 8
SAS/SATA ports.
The server board is capable of supporting additional chipset embedded SAS and RAID options
from the SCU controller when configured with one of several available Intel
®
RAID C600
Upgrade Keys. Upgrade keys install onto a 4-pin connector on the server board labeled as
“Storage Upgrade key”. The following table identifies available upgrade key options and their
supported features. The Intel
