PCIe 4.0 x8 RAID Controller

The Broadcom MegaRAID 9560-8i is a low-profile PCIe 4.0 x8 RAID controller designed for rack-mounted servers. It supports 12Gb/s SAS and 16GT/s PCIe Gen4 NVMe connectivity. The card manages up to 240 SAS or SATA devices or 24 NVMe devices. RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 are supported for critical applications.

Suited for high-density storage arrays

This controller fits builders who need broad operating system support across Windows, VMware, Linux distributions and FreeBSD. The low-profile form factor with side-mounted SAS connectors suits space-constrained chassis. Buyers who require a full-height bracket or internal RAID cabling without the form-factor friendly cable exit should look at something else.

12Gb/s SAS and PCIe 4.0 x8 interface

The single specification that decides fit is the PCIe 4.0 x8 host interface combined with 12Gb/s SAS and NVMe transfer rates. Your server must provide a compatible PCIe 4.0 x8 slot and support the listed operating systems. Without that slot width and protocol support, the card cannot deliver its rated device connectivity or RAID performance.
