Data storage system SAS3516

This fifth-generation SAS RAID-on-Chip (ROC) is based on its Fusion-MPT architecture. This next-generation ROC delivers enhanced performance and power reductions over previous generations. The ROC features Tri-Mode SerDes technology that enables a seamless operation of PCIe, SAS or SATA storage devices from any system design. The 16-port Tri-Mode ROC device provides SAS data transfer rates of 12, 6 and 3Gb/s per lane and SATA data transfer rates of 6 and 3 Gb/s per lane. The high-port count ROC helps eliminate storage bottlenecks with eight PCI Express® 3.0 lanes and complies with the PCIe 3.1 specification that extends the PCIe data rates up to 8.0GT/s per lane. Balance protection and performance for critical applications with MegaRAID levels 0, 1, 1E, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 Reduce EMI with Spread Spectrum Clocking (SSC) and protect confidential data with data encryption Detect and recover data corruption with T-10 Optical Support and T-10 End-to-End Data Protection (EEDP) Take advantage of 12Gb/s speeds while utilizing 6Gb/s drives and backplanes with DataBolt bandwidth aggregation technology Supports up to 2,000 SAS or SATA devices and 10,000 outstanding IOs and can achieve over 1 million IOs per second Available only to OEMs through direct sales
