The LSI® SAS 9211-8i PCI Express® (PCIe®)-to-Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) host bus adapter (HBA), hereinafter referred to as the LSI SAS 9211-8i HBA, provides high-performance internal storage connectivity for servers and workstations. The LSI SAS 9211-8i HBA provides eight lanes of 6Gb/s SAS connectivity and is matched with eight lanes of PCIe 2.0 5Gb/s performance. The low-profile design of the SAS HBA includes a full-height bracket and low-profile mounting bracket that creates a universal fit for any server. The LSI SAS 9211-8i HBA is based on the Fusion-MPT™-architected LSI SAS 2008 controller that integrates the latest enhancements in PCIe 2.0 technology and 6Gb/s SAS technology.
The LSI SAS 9211-8i HBA has onboard Flash memory for the firmware, and BIOS and NVSRAM for Integrated RAID support (RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 10, and RAID 1E).
