Questions & Answers
What is the MegaRAID SAS 9361-8i (SKU: 05-25420-08)?
The MegaRAID SAS 9361-8i is a high-performance RAID controller card featuring eight internal SAS/SATA ports, PCIe 3.0 x8 connectivity and 1 GB DDR3 cache for enterprise storage acceleration.
Which RAID levels does the MegaRAID SAS 9361-8i support?
It supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60, enabling flexible data protection and performance optimization for mixed workloads.
What host interface does the 9361-8i use?
The controller uses a PCI Express 3.0 x8 interface to deliver up to 6.4 GB/s of host bandwidth.
Which drive types are compatible with this RAID controller?
It is compatible with 12 Gbit/s SAS drives and 6 Gbit/s SATA drives, including HDDs and SSDs.
How much cache memory does the MegaRAID SAS 9361-8i have?
It features 1 GB of DDR3-1866 cache memory to accelerate read/write operations and improve I/O performance.
Does the 9361-8i support battery or flash backup?
It supports the optional CacheVault flash module, which secures cached data without a battery and ensures data integrity during power loss.
Can I connect external drive enclosures to this controller?
No, the 9361-8i provides only internal mini-SAS SFF-8643 connectors; external expansion requires a different MegaRAID model with external ports.
Which operating systems are supported?
It is supported on Windows Server, Linux, VMware ESXi, VMware vSAN, and various Unix distributions with drivers from Broadcom.
Is hot-plug drive support available?
Yes. The controller fully supports hot-plugging of SAS and SATA drives when used with a compatible backplane or chassis.
How do I install and configure the MegaRAID SAS 9361-8i?
Insert the card into a free PCIe x8 slot, connect your drive cables, power on, then configure arrays using the MegaRAID BIOS Configuration Utility or MegaRAID Storage Manager.
What peak throughput can this RAID controller deliver?
With 12 Gbit/s per port and PCIe 3.0 x8 host I/O, it can deliver up to 6.4 GB/s aggregate throughput under optimal conditions.
Does the 9361-8i support JBOD (pass-through) mode?
Yes. It offers IT (passthrough) firmware for direct drive access when used as a host bus adapter (HBA) rather than RAID.
Can I update firmware on this system?
Yes. Firmware and driver updates are provided by Broadcom and can be applied via MegaRAID Storage Manager or command-line tools.
What management tools are available?
Use MegaRAID Storage Manager for GUI-based monitoring, MegaCLI or storcli for command-line control, and SNMP for integration with enterprise monitoring systems.
What are the common use cases for the MegaRAID SAS 9361-8i?
Ideal for database acceleration, virtualization hosts, high-performance file servers and mixed read/write enterprise workloads requiring robust RAID protection.
What warranty and support options are offered?
Broadcom offers a five-year limited warranty with optional advanced replacement and 24/7 phone and online technical support.
