HighPoint RocketRAID 2840C SAS Controller

Key Features and Benefits:

• Professional-class SAS RAID solutions
  RocketRAID 2800 series host bus adapters capitalize on HighPoint's two decades of RAID and storage technology to deliver professional grade RAID storage at a fraction of the cost of conventional host RAID solutions. Each adapter is powered by the industry proven RAID technology, superior Gen 3.0 PCIe transfer bandwidth, and up to sixteen dedicated 6Gb/s SAS channels, which support robust, high-performance RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 1/0, 5/0 and JBOD configurations of SAS or SATA hard drives of any disk format, including 512, 512e and 4Kn. RocketRAID 2800 series host bus adapters are designed to maximize the uptime and accessibility of RAID storage. Integrated storage and RAID recovery features enhance data retrieval from failed disks and streamline rebuild sessions. The universal WebGUI interface provides a wide range of preemptive monitoring and maintenance features that enable administrators to easily schedule verification sessions to ensure the health of each RAID storage configuration.
• SATA RAID arrays
  Today's storage applications need solutions that are versatile enough to support more than one type of storage application. RocketRAID 2800 series adapters allow customers to use both 6G SAS and SATA hard drives and SSD's in a wide range of RAID configurations across a variety of operating system and hardware platforms.
• Seamlessly Upgrade RAID storage
  RocketRAID 2840A adapters deliver an unprecedented level of flexibility when it comes to storage configurations. Online Capacity Expansion (OCE) allows administrators to add drives to existing arrays in order to expand capacity. Online RAID Level Migration (ORLM) allows administrators to convert one RAID level to another in order to tune storage configurations for maximum performance or data security. Future-Proof Online RAID Roaming allows customers to move existing RAID arrays to other RocketRAID RAID controllers, in addition to all future HighPoint RAID products.
• Multi-HBA solution
  HighPoint's multi-HBA (host bus adapter) Non-RAID solution software packages are available for all major operating system platforms including Windows, Linux, and macOS. The device driver enables up to four independent cards to work in unison, and effectively function as a single 64-channel 6G SAS host controller. This innovative approach to direct-attached mass storage connectivity allows customers to simplify the build process, streamline maintenance procedures, and provides dedicated SAS 6Gb/s point-to point bandwidth for each connected device. The robust, versatile, device driver allows administrators to keep tabs on the operational status of each card and individual storage device via the intuitive web-based management interface.
