LSI 9305-24i IT Mode 24-Port SAS 12Gb/s PCI-E 3.0 Controller Card

SKU CH-SK8V-SE2NJ

A 24-port SAS 12Gb/s controller card using PCI-E 3.0 x8 lanes

  • 24 ports enable dense SAS connectivity
  • 12 Gb/s speed supports fast data transfer
  • PCI-E 3.0 x8 lane provides high bandwidth
  • IT mode offers direct drive control

24-Port SAS 12Gb/s Controller

The LSI 9305-24i provides 24 internal SAS ports operating at 12Gb/s each. It connects through an x8 PCI Express 3.0 interface and ships in IT mode for direct drive access. This card suits storage servers and JBOD enclosures that need many drive connections from a single slot.

Sustained Multi-Drive Throughput

Under continuous load the controller maintains 12Gb/s signalling across all 24 ports without downshifting. The x8 PCIe 3.0 link supplies enough bandwidth for concurrent heavy I/O on every drive. Builds needing more than 24 ports or a different host interface will require additional cards.

Highlights

  • 24 ports enable dense SAS connectivity
  • 12 Gb/s speed supports fast data transfer
  • PCI-E 3.0 x8 lane provides high bandwidth
  • IT mode offers direct drive control
