Dell FD332 RAID Controller for PowerEdge
The Dell FD332 is a RAID controller with integrated battery backup designed for Dell PowerEdge FD332 storage blocks. It provides hardware RAID management for internal drive arrays in compatible PowerEdge servers. System administrators expanding storage capacity in existing FD332 chassis will find this controller matches the original specification. Buyers needing a controller for non-Dell or non-FD332 platforms cannot use this part.
Sustained operation with battery-backed cache
The onboard battery preserves write cache contents during unexpected power loss, protecting data integrity during long rebuilds or heavy write workloads. Cache retention holds until power is restored, reducing the risk of array corruption over extended periods. The controller manages parity calculations continuously without throttling linked to thermal limits. Environments requiring software-only RAID or external JBOD enclosures are not supported by this module.
Green PCB module installs in dedicated slot
The green circuit board fits the proprietary FD332 storage block slot, aligning with the chassis connector layout for tool-less insertion. No additional cabling or mounting brackets are required beyond the factory rail system. The form factor matches the original controller, so replacement does not alter airflow or drive bay spacing. Builds using standard PCIe RAID cards or third-party backplanes cannot accommodate this module.

Questions about this item
How much heat does the FD332 raid controller generate when running continuously in a PowerEdge server?
The FD332 raid controller includes an onboard battery and is designed for installation inside a Dell PowerEdge FD332 storage block where system airflow manages its thermal output.
Which Dell PowerEdge chassis or backplane must I already have for the 4XMW3 controller to connect and function?
The 4XMW3 controller is built for the Dell PowerEdge FD332 storage block and plugs directly into that platform's dedicated controller slot.
Will the FD332 raid controller work alongside an existing PERC card already installed in my PowerEdge server?
The FD332 controller occupies the storage block's own controller bay, so it operates independently of any PERC card installed in the server's PCIe slots.
