SAS 8344ELP
3Gb/s PCI ExPRESS SAS RAID ADAPtER
External and Internal Connectivity for Maximum Flexibility and
Performance
Key Advantages
• Four internal and four external SAS ports
• Low-profile form factor for 2U servers
• SAS built on proven MegaRAID stack
• Advanced RAID management suite
Robust SAS RAID Solution the MegaRAID SAS 8344ELP, with four internal and four external 3Gb/s Serial
Attached SCSI (SAS) ports, is the ideal RAID solution for internal and external storage subsystems requiring the flexibility to use either
SAS or 3Gb/s SAtA drives, or a combination of both. Based on LSI Logic first-to-market
SAS IC technology, the MegaRAID SAS
8344ELP provides a robust RAID solution complete with a high-performance Intel I/O processor, PCI Express host interface, 128MB
DDRI SDRAM, and intelligent battery backup
(iBBU) support. Additional fault tolerant RAID features include support for all key RAID levels, Online Capacity Expansion (OCE),
RAID Level Migration (RLM) and Patrol Read for finding and resolving bad media blocks on disk drives.
Advanced RAID Management Utility the MegaRAID Management Suite ™ of software is a complete spectrum of applications and tools including a next generation pre-boot as well as advanced online RAID management utilities. this new suite of applications features a variety of configuration options and SAS topology views from the system host, controller and disk enclosure down to the logical and physical drive level. this allows administrators to efficiently configure, monitor and manage
RAID volumes locally or over the network.
MegaRAID SAS Advantage
As the recognized leader in driving and developing storage interface standards and technologies, LSI has extended its leadership with a complete family of SAS RAID solutions for the next generation of DAS for enterprise servers and high performance workstations.
MegaRAID SAS solutions enable system builders to meet both performance and capacity requirements using either SAS drives,
3Gb/s SAtA drives or a combination of both.
SAS drives provide speed, reliability and scalability for enterprise-class systems, while
SAtA drives allow for low-cost and efficient storage in data-dense environments.
Operating System Support the MegaRAID SAS 8344E supports all key versions of Microsoft and Linux. All OS drivers are backed by extensive testing and validation to ensure optimum system performance. For a list of the most current supported drivers, visit www.lsilogic.com/support.

SAS 8344ELP
3Gb/s PCI ExPRESS SAS RAID ADAPtER
Optional iBBU Support the MegaRAID LSIiBBU01 is a battery-backup module that protects the integrity of the cached data on a MegaRAID controller by providing backup power if there is a complete
AC power failure or a brief power outage. the LSI Logic MegaRAID battery backup units provide an inexpensive alternative to using an
Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS).
Front View the LSIiBBU01 does not connect directly to the MegaRAID SAS 8344ELP adapter, but instead uses a supplied 20-pin, 10-inch cable to connect to it. Since server and workstation chassis vary from vendor to vendor, there is no standard mounting option that addresses all the desired applications. therefore, the
LSIiBBU01 battery kit contains only the battery
Rear View and the cable, allowing VARs and chassis manufacturers to customize the location of the remote battery to provide the most flexibility within various environments.
