硬件RAID(独立磁盘冗余阵列)控制器已经出现了一段时间了,在ATA硬盘时代,其普及率得到了提高。市场中充斥着来自英特尔、Adaptec(现名PMC)、惠普以及Promise的RAID卡产品,并要求这些生产商的产品能够承受严格的测试与用户设定的基准。当SAS和SATA代替了并行SCSI和PATA,成为串行接口的选择时,相对较短的RAID控制器史就发生了变化。LSI的MegaRAID SAS9260CV-4i控制器兼具SAS和SATA接口,工作稳定,性能高,这正是其市场的两个最大需求。MegaRAID控制器采用专利的800MHz
Hardware RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks) controllers have been around for some time, increasing their penetration during the ATA drive era. The market is flooded with RAID card products from Intel, Adaptec (now PMC), Hewlett-Packard, and Promise, and requires these manufacturers’ products to withstand rigorous testing and user-set benchmarks. When SAS and SATA replaced parallel SCSI and PATA as serial interface choices, the relatively short history of RAID controllers changed. LSI’s MegaRAID SAS9260CV-4i controller combines SAS and SATA interfaces for stable operation and high performance, which are two of the biggest demands in its market. MegaRAID controller uses a patented 800MHz
