Supported storage drive interfaces: SAS, Serial ATA Host interface: PCI Express x8 RAID levels: 0, 1, 10 12 Gbit/s SSD support Number of devices supported: 4 2000000 h Data center, IT, and general consumer server environments have a broad range of requirementsfrom basic connectivity to extreme data storage capacities. The Series 8E entry-level 12 Gbps PCIe Gen3 SAS/SATA RAID adapters deliver the robustness of hardware RAID in an entry-level solution. They offer performance acceleration through built-in cache and are optimized for platforms where a Series 8 adapter would not fi t due to price, form factor, or host connectivity. The 8805E, with eight internal SAS/SATA ports, is ideal for applications that require more bandwidth. Both models fi t the requirements of industrial PC workstations or entry-level servers. The 8405E and the 8805E support a maximum of four and eight devices respectively, as neither support expanders.Maximum Performance for Entry-Level RAID AdaptersSeries 8E RAID
