3ware 9650SE-4LPML-Kit

9650SE-4LPML-Kit 4-Port Low-profile PCI-E SATA II ML RAID Kit with Cables

Manufacturer Part Number:  9650SE-4LPML

AMCC's 3ware 9650SE SATA II hardware RAID controllers deliver industry-leading RAID 6 and RAID 5 performance, robust fault tolerance, and multi-terabyte capacities. A PCI Express host interface, Multi-lane connectivity, StorSwitch architecture and sophisticated SATA II features drive this unrivaled performance.

The 3ware 9650SE PCI Express to SATA II RAID controller pushes AMCC's established leadership in RAID controller performance to new heights. While 3ware controllers continue to lead the market in RAID 5 performance, the 3ware 9650SE outshines the competition as the new standard bearer for RAID 6 performance, delivering over 800MB/s RAID 6 reads and 600MB/s RAID 6 writes.

PCI Express x4, half-length, LOW PROFILE, 4-port multi-lane (SFF-8087) Serial ATA II hardware RAID card with 3Gb/sec, RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, JBOD and Single Disk. Contents: 9650SE-4LPML SATA II RAID card, (1) CBL-SFF8087OCF-06M 60cm multi-lane breakout cable, 1 CD containing drivers, 3DM 2 disk management software and documentation. RoHS 6 of 6 compliant.
