LSI 9300-16E 16-Port SAS Controller

This LSI 9300-16E is a 12 Gb/s SAS controller with a PCIe 3.0 x8 host interface. It provides sixteen SAS ports on a single plug-in card. The board targets servers and workstations that need many external drive connections.

Suits builds needing maximum port density on one

Systems limited to x4 electrical links or lacking external SAS cabling cannot use all sixteen ports. Buyers who need internal-only connectors or a different host interface should look at other options.

Questions about this item

What throughput does the PCIe 3.0 x8 host interface cap at for this SAS controller?

The PCIe 3.0 x8 host interface limits total bandwidth to roughly 8 GB/s, so the 16 ports share that ceiling even though each SAS lane can run at 12 Gb/s.

What slot size and bracket does the LSI 9300-16E need to install in a server?

It requires a PCIe x8 or larger slot and a standard full-height bracket; the card is a plug-in design with 16 external SAS ports.
