3. PRODUCT BRIEF Intel RAID Controller RS25FB044 Intel RAID Controller RS25FB044 Low Cost SAS 2 with Mirroring Striping and JBOD for Highly Scalable Solutions Product Overview The Intel RAID Controller RS25FB044 is ideal for servers that include both direct attached storage DAS and external JBOD Just a Bunch of Disks storage For example a system may have a mirrored operating system and a mirrored application installed on internal drives along with data stored on drives within a JBOD external to the server For such a system the Intel RS25FB044 RAID controller provides SAS capability allowing for 6Gb s and 3Gb s SAS and SATA hard drives Solid State Drives and SAS expander devices While many other SAS controllers drive large RAID software stacks between the host CPU and controller the RS25FB044 utilizes the embedded CPU in the LSI 2308 ASIC to perform RAID 0 1 and 1E 10 operations An ultra thin driver affords low RAID overhead for high host CPU offload with excellent READ WRITE performance All Intel RAID solutions are validated across multiple platforms with Intel boards chassis and systems Custom training as well as Intel service and support make Intel the one source for customers seeking data protection increased productivity and simplified IT SRU Key Advantages Internal and External Connectivity Four internal ports allow for a mirrored RAID array within a system Four external ports allow for
