Excellent compatibility with modern storage arrays.
The LSI 9305-16i is a PCIe 3.0 x8, 16-port internal SAS/SATA RAID controller in a low-profile form factor with aluminum heatsink.
It supports up to 16 SAS or SATA hard drives or SSDs via two Mini-SAS SFF-8087 connectors.
It natively supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 for data protection and performance optimization.
The 9305-16i is compatible with Windows Server, Linux distributions (RHEL, SUSE, Ubuntu) and VMware ESXi.
Yes, it features 1 GB DDR3-1600 non-volatile cache to accelerate I/O operations and improve rebuild times.
It is a half-height, low-profile PCIe add-in card with a standard bracket and an included low-profile bracket.
The card measures 167.65 mm in length, 68.90 mm in height (half-height) and occupies one PCIe slot.
Shut down the system, insert the card into a PCIe 3.0 x8 slot, secure the bracket, connect Mini-SAS cables to drives, then power on and install drivers.
It delivers up to 12 Gb/s per port aggregated over 16 ports for high-performance storage access.
No battery is required; the on-board NVRAM preserves cache data in a power loss scenario.
Use MegaRAID Storage Manager or command-line MegaCLI utilities for array configuration, monitoring and alerts.
Yes, you can update firmware using Broadcom’s MegaRAID Storage Manager or the CLI-based sas2flash tool.
It employs a black anodized aluminum heatsink and thermal interface material to dissipate heat effectively.
Use standard Mini-SAS SFF-8087 to SATA or SFF-8087 to SFF-8087 breakout cables depending on drive interface.
The controller includes a three-year limited hardware warranty with global support coverage.
Yes, the 9305-16i supports mixed SAS and SATA drives within the same RAID array or separately configured arrays.
