HPE Compute MR Controllers support full tool suite including command line interface, web-based management, and out-of-band management support.
Supported operating systems include, but are not limited to Windows, Linux, and VMware.

Powerful Performance

HPE Compute MR Gen11 Controllers offer up to 13.7 GBs of bandwidth, and eight PCIe Gen4.0 host lanes.
HPE Compute MR Controllers offer 3M Random Read IOPS and 240K RAID5 Random Write IOPS.
MR932i-p now offers sixteen PCIe Gen5 host lanes with 32G NVMe and 24G SAS speeds.

Description

Do you need a versatile, simplified, and flexible choice for your data centers? HPE Compute MR Controllers are expansive and agile PCIe Gen4.0 (PCIe Gen5 for MR932i-p) storage controllers based on Broadcom MegaRAID technology that deliver quality, performance, and security for mission-critical applications. The HPE MR416i-o / HPE MR416i-p controllers are ideal for most data center environments where RAID is applicable offering reduced rebuild times, high bandwidth, and 240K RAID5 Random Write IOPS. The HPE MR416i-o / HPE MR416i-p controllers are ideal for many virtualized environments where HBA / pass-through mode is applicable offering high bandwidth and three million random write IOPS. HPE Compute MR Controllers offer solutions for multiple workflows across multiple applications to deliver customer satisfaction.

Description

Add 4 Internal SATA III (6Gbps) ports to a computer through a PCI Express x2 slot

The PEXSAT34RH 4-Port PCI Express 2.0 SATA Controller Card with HyperDuo adds 4 AHCI SATA III ports to a computer through a PCIe slot (x2), delivering multiple internal 6Gbps connections for high-performance hard drives and Solid State Drives (SSDs).

Featuring HyperDuo technology, the SATA card offers SSD auto-tiering which lets you balance the performance advantages of SSD storage with the cost-effectiveness and large capacity of standard hard drives. By combining SSD and HDD drives into a single volume (up to 3 SSD + 1 HDD), HyperDuo discreetly works in the background to identify and move frequently accessed files to the faster SSD drive(s) for improved data throughput - up to 80% of SSD performance! (Note: The HyperDuo automatic storage tiering feature is compatible with computers that use a BIOS.)

The PCIe SATA controller card supports Port Multiplier (PM), enabling multiple SATA drives to be connected to one port over a single cable, for a total of 7 drives (Up to 4 drives through PM on one port, and a single drive to the remaining 3 ports). Plus, the SATA controller card offers an effective hardware RAID solution, with native RAID (0, 1, 1+0) support.

Drives Used:

SSD: OCZ Vertex 3 Series 2.5” 120 GB (VTX3-25SAT3-120G)

HDD: Western Digital Caviar Green 3.5” 2 TB (WD20EARS)

Software Used:

IO Meter, 256KB Sequential Read, queue depth = 10

This PCIe SATA 6gbps card is backed by a 2-year StarTech.com warranty and free lifetime technical support.
