Advanced RAID Controller with Flash-Backed Cache Technology

The sophisticated engineering of the HPE Smart Array P408i-p is evident in its robust circuit board design and premium component selection. The controller's 2GB flash-backed write cache serves as a critical performance accelerator, temporarily storing write operations in high-speed memory before committing them to disk. This architecture significantly reduces write latency and improves overall system responsiveness, particularly beneficial for applications with intensive write workloads such as databases and virtualization platforms. The controller's support for HPE Smart Array SR Secure Encryption ensures that sensitive data remains protected at rest, meeting stringent compliance requirements without compromising performance. The Mixed Mode capability allows the same controller to handle both RAID-protected storage and direct-attached storage simultaneously, providing unprecedented flexibility in storage architecture design. This dual functionality eliminates the need for separate HBA cards, reducing complexity and cost while maintaining enterprise-grade reliability.

FAQs

What is the HPE Smart Array P408i-p SR Gen10 Controller and what is its primary function?

The HPE Smart Array P408i-p SR Gen10 Controller (model 830824-B21) is a high-performance SAS controller designed for enterprise storage applications. It supports 12Gb/s SAS and PCIe 3.0 connectivity, providing enterprise-class storage performance, reliability, and security. The controller operates in Mixed Mode, which uniquely combines RAID and HBA operations simultaneously, making it ideal for diverse storage environments that require both RAID protection and direct drive access.

What RAID levels does the HPE P408i-p controller support?

The HPE Smart Array P408i-p SR Gen10 Controller supports comprehensive RAID levels including RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60, plus advanced configurations like 1 ADM (Advanced Data Mirroring) and 10 ADM. This extensive RAID support allows for flexible data protection strategies, from simple mirroring and striping to complex nested RAID configurations that balance performance, capacity, and redundancy based on specific business requirements.

How much cache memory does the P408i-p controller have and what type of backup protection does it offer?

The HPE Smart Array P408i-p features 2 GB of flash-backed write cache (FBWC). This substantial cache memory significantly improves write performance by temporarily storing data before writing to drives. The flash-backed protection ensures that cached data is preserved during power outages or system failures, preventing data loss and maintaining data integrity. The controller is also supported by the HPE Smart Storage Battery (sold separately) for additional power backup protection.

What connectivity options and drive support does the P408i-p controller provide?

The controller features eight internal SAS lanes through 2 SAS connectors, supporting both SAS and SATA drives with 12Gb/s transfer rates. It connects to the host system via a PCI Express 3.0 x8 interface, ensuring high-bandwidth communication. The controller supports Serial ATA/600 for SATA drives, providing flexibility to use both high-performance SAS drives and cost-effective SATA drives in the same storage configuration.

What security features are included with the HPE Smart Array P408i-p controller?

The HPE Smart Array P408i-p SR Gen10 Controller offers enhanced security through HPE Smart Array SR Secure Encryption, which encrypts data-at-rest on any connected drive. This hardware-based encryption provides robust data protection without impacting system performance, ensuring that sensitive data remains secure even if drives are physically removed or stolen. The encryption is transparent to the operating system and applications, making it easy to implement enterprise-grade security.
