LSI SAS2008 chipset HBA
This LSI SAS 9210-8i host bus adapter uses the SAS2008 chipset to provide eight internal SAS or SATA ports. It targets server and workstation builders who need to connect multiple drives through a single PCIe 2.0 x8 slot. The low-profile bracket allows installation in standard rackmount chassis.
Eight ports at 6Gb/s each
Each of the two SFF-8087 Mini-SAS connectors carries four lanes, giving eight total ports at 6Gb/s per port. The PCIe 2.0 x8 host interface supplies enough bandwidth for all ports simultaneously under typical mixed workloads. Sustained throughput will fall short when many drives stream sequential data at once.
RAID 0 1 10 and JBOD modes
On-board firmware presents RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 10 and JBOD personalities without extra software licences. The card ships with no cables, brackets beyond the low-profile one, or management utilities; administrators must supply SFF-8087 breakout cables and configure arrays via the BIOS utility or operating-system tools.

Questions about this item
Will the 9210-8i work in my older server that only has PCIe 2.0 slots?
Yes, the card uses a PCIe 2.0 x8 interface and is compatible with systems supporting PCIe 2.0 or 3.0, so it will function in your existing slot.
How can I verify the SAS2008 chipset is running at 6Gb/s per port after installation?
Check the controller BIOS during boot or use the LSI management utility in your OS to confirm each of the eight ports reports a 6Gb/s link speed.
Does the box include the two SFF-8087 Mini-SAS cables needed to connect eight drives?
The controller card is supplied with the low-profile bracket; the two SFF-8087 Mini-SAS cables for the eight internal ports must be purchased separately.
