Eight-Port Internal SAS RAID Card
This SMUGDESK S3108LH8IR controller provides eight internal SAS ports operating at 12Gb/s for high-density drive connectivity. It uses a full-profile bracket designed for standard server chassis. A hardware RAID processor delivers data protection and read-write acceleration. The card targets enterprise servers, NAS appliances and disk-array systems.
Suited for high-capacity internal storage arrays
The eight-port layout and 12Gb/s bandwidth serve administrators building dense SAS drive pools inside full-height servers. Buyers who need external SAS connectors or a low-profile bracket for compact enclosures should look at alternative cards that provide those specific interfaces and form factors. The full-profile design does not fit slim or half-height chassis.
12Gb/s SAS bandwidth per port
Each of the eight ports delivers 12Gb/s throughput, setting the maximum data rate for every attached drive. This figure determines whether the controller matches the performance tier of the storage devices being deployed.
