Key features
SAS 3.0 data transfer with up to 36 total ports at 12 Gb/s
Seven HD SFF8643 mini-SAS internal connectors for 28 internal ports
One HD SFF8644 mini-SAS external connector for eight external ports
Low-profile, MD2 depth for use in low-profile slots
PCIe* x4 connector with power pins to mount and power from a PCIe slot
Target applicationIntel® RAID expander RES3FV28 is ideal for solutions with more than eight drives and is an ideal complement for the SAS-3 generation RAID cards from Intel. Designed with a low-profile, MD2 form factor, the RES3FV288 can be used in any server add-in card slot including a low-profile slot in a 2U rack system. In cases where an add-in slot is not available, the RES3FV288 can even be mounted to a chassis wall or air-duct. Key advantages
Low-cost alternative to high port count RAID cards: Provides an economic solution similar to a high port count card, but with more flexibility as the RES3FV288 can be paired with a wide variety four- or eight-port SAS RAID card/modules
Excellent performance and data aggregation: Overall performance is on par with Intel SAS-3 high port count RAID with transfer rates of up to 12 Gb/s per port. Compliance with the SAS 3.0 specification allows for bandwidth aggregation of 6 Gb/s target data for transfer at 12 Gb/s
Exceptional quality and support: Thoroughly tested across the SAS 3.0 RAID cards from Intel® RAID product line to ensure ease of deployment; and backed by a three-year warranty (a five-year extended warranty is available for optional purchase)
