Dell ADAPTEC ASR-8405 RAID Controller

The Dell ADAPTEC ASR-8405 is a PCI-Express 3.0 x8 RAID controller card designed to manage SAS and SATA drives. It provides essential RAID levels and non-RAID passthrough modes for tiered storage configurations.

Suited for SAS and SATA arrays

This card fits servers or workstations that require 12Gbps connectivity for SAS hard drives or solid state drives. It is not for systems lacking a PCI-Express 3.0 x8 slot or for installations that need drive interfaces other than SAS and SATA.

12Gbps SAS and SATA interface

The controller delivers a 12Gbps data rate across eight lanes using the PCI-Express 3.0 x8 interface. This specification determines compatibility with the host platform and the maximum throughput available to attached SAS or SATA storage devices.

Questions about this item

How much noise and heat does the ASR-8405 add when running continuously?

The ASR-8405 is a passive RAID controller card with no onboard fan, so it adds no audible noise and minimal heat to the chassis under continuous operation.

What slot and cabling must already be in the server for the ASR-8405 to work?

The card requires a free PCI Express 3.0 x8 slot and SAS or SATA drive backplanes with compatible cables to connect storage devices.

Will the ASR-8405 work with older SAS and SATA drives I already own?

Yes, the controller supports both SAS and SATA interfaces, so existing SAS hard drives and SATA solid-state drives can be used in RAID or passthrough modes.
