HP SmartHBA 2100-4i4e SAS Host Bus Adapter

The HP Microsemi SmartHBA 2100-4i4e is a 12 Gb/s SAS Host Bus Adapter built for HP ProLiant Gen9 and Gen10 servers. It connects via a PCIe 3.0 x8 interface and provides four internal plus four external ports for SAS and SATA drives. The low-profile form factor suits compact server chassis and supports basic RAID 0, 1 and 10 configurations.

Server administrators expanding internal

This adapter suits administrators adding SAS or SATA drives to compatible HP ProLiant Gen9 or Gen10 systems using the PCIe 3.0 x8 slot. It is not for environments that require RAID levels beyond 0, 1 or 10. Buyers needing connectivity for drive interfaces other than SAS or SATA should consider a different controller.

PCIe 3.0 x8 interface

The single specification that decides fitment is the PCIe 3.0 x8 host interface combined with four internal and four external 12 Gb/s SAS ports. Verify the server has an available x8 slot and that the cabling matches the internal and external port layout before purchase.

Questions about this item

How much power does the SmartHBA 2100-4i4e draw when running continuously in a server?

The adapter uses a PCIe 3.0 x8 slot and is built for low-profile server chassis, keeping power draw within standard slot limits for all-day operation.

Which slot and server generation must I already have to install the 858096-001?

You need a free PCIe 3.0 x8 slot in an HP ProLiant Gen9 or Gen10 server for the SmartHBA 2100-4i4e to function.

Will the SmartHBA 2100-4i4e work with the 6 Gb/s SATA drives already in my Gen9 server?

Yes, the adapter supports both 12 Gb/s SAS and 6 Gb/s SATA drives, so existing SATA HDDs or SSDs connect directly to its four internal or four external ports.
