LSI 9305-24i HBA 24-Port SAS 12Gb/s PCIe 3.0 with 6 SFF-8087 Cables

SKU CH-YDFX-51613

Adds 24 internal 12 Gb/s SAS and SATA ports over PCIe 3.0 with six SFF-8087 cables included

  • 24 internal 12 Gb/s SAS and SATA ports for high-density storage
  • PCIe 3.0 eight-channel full-duplex bandwidth for low-latency throughput
  • Includes six 3.3 ft SFF-8087 cables for immediate SATA drive connectivity
  • SFF-8643 connectors support 3, 6 and 12 Gb/s SAS link rates
  • Low-profile and full-height brackets supplied for flexible chassis fit

24-Port SAS 12Gb/s HBA for Dense Storage

The LSI 9305-24i provides 24 internal 12Gb/s SAS and SATA ports over a PCIe 3.0 x8 interface. It is designed for servers and workstations that need to attach large numbers of drives through a single slot. The card operates in IT mode, presenting drives directly to the operating system without RAID abstraction.

Fits a PCIe 3.0 x8 slot and uses SFF-8643 connectors

Installation requires a full-height PCIe 3.0 slot with eight lanes. The board carries 24 small-form-factor SAS HD connectors (SFF-8643), each supporting four lanes at 3, 6 or 12Gb/s. A high bracket and a low-profile baffle are supplied so the card fits either standard or low-profile chassis without extra parts.

Six SFF-8087 breakout cables included

The package ships with six 3.3FT SAS to SATA cables (SFF-8087) that convert each SFF-8643 port to four SATA connectors. This lets you populate up to 24 SATA drives immediately, saving the cost and lead time of sourcing separate breakout cables.

Questions about this item

How many internal 12 Gb/s SAS ports does the 9305-24i provide?

The card provides 24 internal 12 Gb/s SAS ports via SFF-8643 connectors, supporting SAS link rates of 3, 6 and 12 Gb/s for both SAS and SATA drives.

What is the power draw and thermal behaviour when the HBA runs continuously?

The eight-lane PCIe 3.0 interface and 24-port SAS controller draw moderate power; the included low-profile bracket allows airflow in dense chassis, and the card has no onboard fan so it relies on case cooling.

Which drive cables are required beyond the six SFF-8087 cables already in the box?

The six included SFF-8087 to SATA cables connect the card’s SFF-8643 ports to SATA drives; SAS drives need SFF-8643 to SFF-8643 cables, which are not supplied.
