12G SAS/SATA HBA Controller

This card is a 12G external PCIe SAS/SATA host bus adapter built around the Broadcom SAS 3008 controller. It targets system builders and storage administrators who need to attach external SAS or SATA enclosures to a server or workstation. The PCIe 3.0 x8 interface provides the link to the host system.

Bundled Accessories and Software

The package includes the HBA card, a driver CD and a low-profile bracket for compact chassis installations. Drivers are also available for download from the documented 10Gtek resource at doc.10gtek.com/en/116. These items let you install the card in either full-height or low-profile slots and get the operating system talking to the controller.

Build Quality and Connectivity

Two Mini SAS SFF-8644 ports on the bracket accept external cables for SAS or SATA storage enclosures. The half-height PCIe form factor fits standard server expansion slots without blocking adjacent cards. A passive heatsink on the controller handles thermal dissipation in typical rack airflow.

Questions about this item

Will the Mini SAS SFF-8644 cables need replacing over time?

The two SFF-8644 ports are passive connectors; the cables themselves may wear with repeated insertion cycles but the card has no serviceable parts.

What limits sustained throughput on the PCIe 3.0 x8 link?

The eight-lane PCIe 3.0 interface caps aggregate bandwidth at the bus level, so long transfers are bounded by that link speed.

How much heat does the Broadcom 3008 controller produce under continuous load?

The board has no active cooling; the 3008 controller relies on chassis airflow to dissipate heat during all-day operation.
