Internal 12Gb/s SAS/SATA HBA

This LSI host bus adapter adds eight lanes of 12Gb/s SAS and SATA connectivity through a PCIe 3.0 x8 slot. It is built on the Broadcom SAS 3008 controller and provides the same functionality as the SAS 9300-8I. Two Mini SAS SFF-8643 ports carry the eight internal links.

For servers and workstations needing internal

The card suits builders who want to connect multiple SAS or SATA hard drives and SSDs directly to the CPU root complex. It ships with both low-profile and full-height brackets for 1U or tower chassis. Systems without a free PCIe 3.0 x8 slot or installations that require external ports cannot use this adapter.

Eight internal ports via two SFF-8643 connectors

Each of the two Mini SAS SFF-8643 ports breaks out to four 12Gb/s lanes, giving eight total device connections. This port count and connector type determine whether the card matches your backplane or breakout cables.
