SKU CH-1QG5-2RAEV

Full-height SAS RAID controller with PCIe 2.0 x8 interface and 1 GB non-volatile cache

  • PERC H710P RAID controller adds hardware redundancy for SAS arrays
  • PCIe 2.0 x8 interface delivers 6 Gb/s bandwidth to each attached drive
  • 1 GB non-volatile cache protects write data during unexpected power loss
  • Full-height bracket fits standard server chassis without adapters

Dell PERC H710P RAID controller for SAS arrays

This full-height PCIe 2.0 x8 card adds hardware RAID with 1 GB of non-volatile cache to Dell PowerEdge servers. It manages SAS drives at 6 Gb/s for databases, virtualisation hosts or backup targets that need protected write performance.

1 GB non-volatile cache preserves writes during

The onboard cache acknowledges write I/O before data reaches the drives, cutting latency for transactional workloads. Buyers who need more cache capacity or flash-backed options must select a different controller.

Questions about this item

Will the 1 GB NV cache on the PERC H710P controller require a battery replacement?

The 1 GB NV cache uses non-volatile memory that retains data without a battery, so no battery replacement is needed for cache protection.

At sustained loads, does the PCIe 2.0 x8 interface limit the PERC H710P before the 6 Gb/s SAS links do?

Yes, the PCIe 2.0 x8 link caps throughput at about 4 GB/s, which is lower than the combined 6 Gb/s SAS bandwidth, so the host bus becomes the first bottleneck.
