Before ordering check your server
Verify that the server has an available PCI Express 2.0 x8 slot and internal backplane cabling that matches the SFF-8087 mini-SAS connectors. Confirm the chassis airflow can cool a plug-in card of this length and that the system firmware recognises the 81Y4448 part number.
Bundled accessories and software
No cables, brackets, or management software are listed in the manufacturer data for this controller. You must source compatible SFF-8087 cables and any required RAID management tools separately for your operating environment.

The M1115 provides 6Gb/s SAS connectivity over a PCI Express 2.0 x8 host interface and supports RAID levels 0, 1 and 10 through its onboard controller.

Each attached SAS or SATA drive can transfer at up to 6Gb/s per lane, with the x8 host link providing enough bandwidth for multiple drives simultaneously.
