Detailed Specifications
Broadcom MegaRAID 9560-8i - Storage controller (RAID) - 8 Channel - SATA 6Gb/s / SAS 12Gb/s / PCIe 4.0 (NVMe) - RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, JBOD, 60 - PCIe 4.0 x8
Overview :
The MegaRAID 9500/9560-8i series is the industry's first PCIe Gen 4.0 RAID adapter family, 9560-8i offering PCIe Gen 4.0 host and storage interfaces. The MegaRAID 9560-8i adapter, based on the SAS3908 high-port count PCIe 4.0 x8 RAID-on-Chip (RoC), delivers twice the performance of previous generations. The 9560-8i is compatible with existing PCIe SFF-8639 Module (U.2) backplanes, 9560-8i allowing users to boost performance for today's ever-increasing bandwidth environments. Coupled with two industry initiatives expanding the deployment of Tri-Mode SerDes technology, which enables the operation of NVMe, SAS, 9560-8i, or SATA devices in a single drive bay, the 9560-8i is instrumental in getting the most performance and flexibility out of U.3 backplanes: With Tri-Mode SerDes technology, the adapter negotiates between speeds and protocols to seamlessly work with any of the three types of storage devices. Tri-Mode support provides a non-disruptive way to evolve existing data center infrastructure.
