But on Windows there is the MegaRAID storage manager (MSM) which is a much prettier graphical client, but it only easy to set up if the server is running Windows. The most straightforward is to boot into it's BIOS. There are a few ways to manage it and configure disks and arrays and such. I have an old LSI (later Avago, now Broadcom) MegaRAID 9260-4i SAS RAID controller in my system. This is a PCI Express (PCIe) 2.0 x8 card.Howdy, I thought I would document this for posterity. LSI SAS 9205-8e 2×4 ports SAS external, no cache, no BBU, can be flashed to either IT or IR mode, possibly even to LSI9240 making it a dual core version (LSI 9245 which was planned).LSI original SAS 2308 based controller, all cards are PCIe 3.0 x8 unless otherwise noted. Naming Convention: i=internal port(s), e=external port(s). The following listing is for the RAID Controllers and HBAs based on the LSI SAS 2308 SAS 2 and SATA III RAID controller. I2C interfaces for enclosure management services.Slumber and Partial power mode support for SAS and SATA devices.
Supports End-to-End CRC (ECRC) and Advanced Error Reporting (AER). Supports x8, x4, x1 PCIe lanes at a transfer rate up to 8.0 GT/s per lane, full duplex. Optical Support and Advanced Error Reporting (AER). Supports SSP, SMP, STP and SATA protocols. 6Gb/s SAS Interface, Supports 1.5Gb/s, 3Gb/s, and 6Gb/s SAS and SATA data transfer rates. High Performance IOP PowerPC 440 800MHz. Integrated MegaRAID® support available upon request. Oftentimes LSI SAS 2308 controllers are less expensive when found as OEM parts from Intel, Dell, HP, IBM, Supermicro and others, so it makes sense in many cases to purchase the OEM versions of the LSI SAS 2308 based cards. This post will be updated with both information on the LSI SAS 2308 based RAID controllers as well as the different OEM models commonly found in the marketplace. In the forums we have maintained a LSI Controller Mapping between LSI controllers and their OEM counterparts. The LSI SAS 2308 is a 6.0gbs SAS 2 or SATA III based controller that features eight ports and native PCIe 3.0 connectivity. To address this LSI has released a PCIe 3.0 controller, the LSI SAS 2308 to provide additional bandwidth over its PCIe 2. As we have seen with the latest server processors such as Sandy Bridge-EP and Ivy Bridge, PCI Express (PCIe) 3.0 is becoming widely available.
