SKU CH-KAR9-6BSC6

Eight-port SAS/SATA host-bus adapter with 6 Gb/s links and IR-mode RAID support

  • 8-port SAS/SATA connectivity for flexible storage expansion
  • 6 Gb/s per port bandwidth for high-throughput workloads
  • Integrated RAID support for data redundancy
  • Low-profile bracket included for compact chassis fit

LSI 9211-8i 8-Port HBA

The LSI 9211-8i is an eight-port host bus adapter built around the SAS2008 controller. It provides 6Gbps SAS and SATA connectivity over a PCIe slot and operates in IR mode for hardware RAID. High and low-profile brackets are included to fit different chassis.

Brackets and IR mode

The bundled high and low brackets let the card install in full-height or low-profile servers without extra parts. IR mode enables integrated RAID 0, 1 and 1E across attached SAS or SATA drives, removing the need for a separate RAID controller.

Questions about this item

Does the 9211-8i card require any firmware maintenance or battery replacement for its RAID function?

The card operates in IR mode using the SAS2008 chip and has no onboard cache or battery backup unit, so no firmware maintenance or battery replacement is needed for RAID operation.

What limits sustained throughput on the 9211-8i when all eight ports are active?

Each port supports up to 6Gbps SAS or SATA speeds, and the PCI Express host interface bandwidth becomes the limiting factor when all eight ports run simultaneously at full rate.
