LSI H1110 9211-4i SAS 6Gbps HBA network card

SKU CH-EX2D-M6NKE MPN H1110

Four-port SAS/SATA HBA with PCIe 2.0 host interface and Mini-SAS SFF-8087 internal connector

  • HBA IT mode firmware ready for ZFS and unRAID deployments
  • LSI SAS2004 controller delivers 6Gbps SAS and SATA throughput
  • PCI Express 2.0 host interface fits standard server expansion slots
  • Single Mini-SAS SFF-8087 connector supports up to four internal drives
  • Includes controller card and cable for immediate installation

SAS 6 Gbps host bus adapter

The LSI H1110 9211-4i is a SAS 6 Gbps host bus adapter built around the LSI SAS2004 controller. It connects to the host through a PCI Express 2.0 slot and provides one internal Mini-SAS SFF-8087 port for up to four drives. The card ships in IT mode firmware, presenting disks directly to the operating system without hardware RAID abstraction.

ZFS and software RAID builders

This adapter suits builders assembling ZFS, TrueNAS Core or unRAID systems that require direct drive access for software RAID or pooled storage. It is not suited for users who need a hardware RAID controller with battery-backed cache, nor for platforms lacking a PCI Express 2.0 or newer slot.

PCI Express 2.0 x8 host interface

The single specification that decides fit is the PCI Express 2.0 x8 host interface; the motherboard must provide a compatible slot of at least that width. The card delivers 6 Gbps per SAS or SATA lane through the lone SFF-8087 connector, and includes one Mini-SAS cable in the box.

Questions about this item

What does the 6Gbps data rate mean when the card is installed?

The 6Gbps rate is the maximum link speed per SAS or SATA port; actual throughput depends on the drives and PCIe 2.0 x8 bandwidth.

Which host interface does the card use and what does it limit?

The card uses a PCIe 2.0 x8 slot, capping total bandwidth to about 4GB/s shared across the four ports.

What internal connector and bracket does the card need to fit?

It has one Mini-SAS SFF-8087 connector and a standard low-profile bracket for typical server chassis.
