Fujitsu D3216-A13 RAID controller

The Fujitsu D3216-A13 is an LSI MegaRAID SAS add-in card built around the LSISA3108 dual-core ROC running at 1.2GHz. It provides eight internal 12Gb/s ports through two SFF8643 connectors and includes 1GB of DDRIII cache. Designed for enterprise storage, it supports RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 and can connect up to 128 SATA or SAS devices across 3Gb/s, 6Gb/s and 12Gb/s speeds.

Compatibility checks

Verify that your motherboard has a free PCI Express 3.0 slot for the host interface. Ensure the chassis can accommodate a horizontal-mount card with two miniSAS SFF8643 internal connectors. Confirm your backplane or drive cages accept 12Gb/s SAS and SATA signalling and that you have the appropriate SFF8643-to-SATA breakout cables for the drives you plan to use.

Sustained operation

The 1GB DDRIII cache and CacheVault flash protection help maintain write performance and data integrity during extended workloads. The dual-core 1.2GHz ROC handles parity calculations for RAID 5, 6, 50 and 60 without host CPU overhead. Twelve-gigabit transfer rates keep throughput steady across large arrays, preserving investment in existing 6Gb/s and 3Gb/s drives while supporting next-generation datacenter, web and cloud deployments.
