804394‑B21

Smart Array E208i‑p SR Gen10 12 Gb/s 2‑Port Internal SAS Controller 

The HPE 804394‑B21 Smart Array E208i‑p SR Gen10 is a versatile internal SAS/SATA controller designed for HPE Gen10 servers. It's ideal for IT environments demanding flexible storage configurations with mixed RAID and direct-attached drives, combining performance, data protection, and advanced management features.

Features

This controller integrates seamlessly into a PCIe 3.0 x8 slot, providing eight internal 12 Gb/s SAS lanes (also backward-compatible with 6 Gb/s SATA). It supports Agile Mixed Mode, enabling simultaneous RAID volumes and non-RAID (HBA) drives—a strong fit for systems running virtualization, backup, or diverse storage workloads. Comprehensive support via HPE Smart Storage Administrator eases setup and monitoring.

Advanced Options

Available encryption enhances compliance with regulations such as HIPAA and SOX. Predictive drive failure alerts and rapid parity initialization ensure high uptime, while compatibility with Windows Storage Spaces Direct and VMware vSAN offers future-proof integration

Product Key Features

  •  12 Gb/s SAS & 6 Gb/s SATA support via 8 internal lanes

  •  Mixed Mode: RAID 0,1,5,10 alongside HBA passthrough

  •  SR Secure Encryption (optional) for data-at-rest security

  •  PCIe 3.0 x8 plug-in card—fits Gen10 servers with hot-swap readiness

  •  Enterprise reliability: Predictive failure, rebuild acceleration

  •  Supports up to 238 physical drives and 64 logical volumes

Reliability & Performance

Engineered for data centers, this controller features background surface scans, ECC-protected firmware, redundant BIOS, and hot-spare support—all enabling fast recovery from drive issues. The SAS lanes boast theoretical bandwidth up to 12 Gb/s per lane (SATA at 6 Gb/s). Use with SAS expander cards supports up to 238 drives, ideal for storage-dense deployments.

Key Features (Bullet List)

  • SAS/SATA interface: 12 Gb/s SAS, 6 Gb/s SATA

  • Supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 10 plus HBA Mixed Mode

  • Eight internal lanes via 2 × Mini‑SAS x4 connectors

  • PCIe 3.0 x8 host interface

  • Predictive failure, rapid parity init, rebuild acceleration

  • Optional SR Secure Encryption license
