LSI Logic

LSI Logic 05-50011-02 MegaRAID 9460-8I 8-Port 12Gb/s SAS/SATA/NVMe RAID controller

SKU CH-FXA0-J4S55 MPN 05-50011-02

Eight-port 12 Gb/s controller supports SAS, SATA and NVMe drives over PCIe 3.1

  • 8-port tri-mode controller handles SAS, SATA and NVMe drives
  • 12 Gb/s throughput per port keeps storage pipelines full
  • PCI Express 3.1 interface fits modern server backplanes
  • Low-profile bracket suits dense 1U and 2U chassis
  • Broadcom MegaRAID firmware delivers proven RAID reliability

Eight-port Tri-Mode RAID controller

The LSI Logic 05-50011-02 MegaRAID 9460-8I connects up to eight SAS, SATA or NVMe drives through a single PCIe 3.1 x8 slot. It is built for servers and workstations that need hardware RAID across mixed drive types without adding multiple host bus adapters.

PCIe 3.1 x8 bandwidth ceiling

The controller uses a PCI Express 3.1 x8 host interface, so aggregate throughput cannot exceed the electrical limit of that link. All eight ports share this pathway, meaning simultaneous heavy traffic on every drive will saturate the bus before the individual 12 Gb/s device links do.

Twelve-gigabit device link speed

Each of the eight ports runs at up to 12 Gb/s toward the attached drives. This per-port rate decides whether the card can feed your fastest SSDs or if the drives will wait on the controller, making it the single specification that determines fit for a given workload.

Questions about this item

How many internal ports does the 9460-8I provide for SAS, SATA and NVMe drives?

The 9460-8I has eight internal ports that each support SAS, SATA or NVMe devices in tri-mode.

What transfer rate does the 12 Gb/s rating deliver for a single drive?

Each connected drive can run at up to 12 Gb/s on its own link to the controller.

Which PCIe generation does the card use and what bandwidth does that provide?

The card plugs into a PCIe 3.1 slot, giving the controller its upstream bandwidth to the host system.
