Questions about this item

Which version of the HP P420 SAS controller should I choose for my server?

The HP P420 633538-001 is a single model with a PCIe 3.0 x8 interface and two SAS ports; there are no alternate versions or capacities listed for this part number.

What does the 6 Gb/s SAS rating mean once the card is installed?

Each of the two SAS ports supports up to 6 Gb/s transfer speed, so connected drives or enclosures can run at that rate when the card is seated in a PCIe 3.0 x8 slot.
