Eight internal 12Gb/s SAS and SATA ports

The LSI MegaRAID SAS 9361-8i is a storage controller designed for servers that need to connect up to 128 SATA or SAS drives. It installs in a PCIe 3.0 slot and uses a low-profile form factor with side-mounted connectors for rack-mounted chassis. The card targets administrators who manage critical, high-bandwidth workloads requiring hardware RAID.

RAID 0 1 5 6 10 50 60 under sustained load

The controller balances protection and performance across RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, and 60 during continuous operation. Optional CacheVault flash cache protection preserves data in the cache during unexpected power loss. PCIe 3.0 connectivity supports the bandwidth needed for demanding, sustained application throughput.

Verify PCIe 3.0 slot and internal drive cabling

Confirm the server has an available PCIe 3.0 slot that accepts a low-profile card with side-mounted SAS connectors. Ensure the chassis provides adequate internal cabling and backplane support for up to 128 drives. Check that the operating system and management tools support the MegaRAID firmware stack.

Questions about this item

How much power does the MegaRAID SAS 9361-8i draw when running continuously?

The card uses a PCIe 3.0 x8 interface, so its sustained power draw stays within the slot limit and does not require an auxiliary power connector.

Which cables or backplane connectors do I need to attach drives to the eight internal ports?

The controller provides eight 12Gb/s SAS ports that accept standard Mini-SAS HD cables or a matching backplane for SATA and SAS drives.

Will the MegaRAID SAS 9361-8i work in a server that only has PCIe 2.0 slots?

Yes, the PCIe 3.0 interface is backward compatible with PCIe 2.0 slots, though bandwidth will be limited to the slower generation.
