Dell PowerEdge RAID Controller H730P
Eight-port 12Gbps PCI Express (PCIe) RAID controller supporting 3Gbps, 6Gbps and
12Gbps SAS or SATA hard-disk or solid-state drives.
As storage demands expand and processing loads
grow, it becomes increasingly more difficult for
administrators to achieve maximum performance
from their applications. The newest line of
Dell PowerEdge RAID Controller cards, built on
the LSI SAS 3108 dual-core PowerPC RAID-onChip (ROC), offer unmatched I/O performance for
database applications and streaming digital media
environments.
The PowerEdge RAID Controller (PERC) H730P, with
eight internal ports, delivers two PowerPC processor
cores and a 72-bit DDR3 interface that drives 2GB
non-volatile cache memory. Deploy the PERC H730P
in hard-drive-based server environments for
significant performance gains. To implement hybrid
server platforms based on solid-state storage, these
next-generation PERCs exploit the potential of solidstate drives (SSDs) for unsurpassed performance and
enterprise-class reliability.
Benefits include:
iDRAC automatically creates and executes jobs
for each storage configuration operation
Customer can reboot the host OS automatically
or schedule reboot for a later date.
PERC H730P supports real-time RAID monitoring
and hardware inventory.
iDRAC incorporates Dell OpenManage Storage
Services (OMSS) to provide the tools to efficiently
manage PERC products, including a pre-boot
setup utility and a full spectrum of online RAID
management utilities. This suite of applications
allows administrators to adjust SAS or SATA topology
views from the system host down to the logical
and physical drive level. Extending to enterprise
deployments, these tools can scale to easily
configure, monitor and manage RAID and JBOD
volumes locally or over the LAN network.
