Silverstone SST-ECS04 RAID-Contr. PCIe x8 for 8x SAS / SATA (9217-8i) [SST-ECS04]

Up to eight hard disks or SSDs can be managed with the SATA or SAS connector from the controller card, depending on the type of drive and the corresponding optional connection cable. Two Mini SAS outputs (type SFF8087) can be connected to the Board, to which corresponding, additional cable to be purchased are connected, eg from 1x Mini-SAS to 4x SATA.

The Silverstone SST-ECS04 is equipped with the 800 MHz fast "LSI SAS 2308" chip (also known as the LSI MegaRAID 9217-8i), which allows configuration of the storage media in RAID 0, 1, 1E or 10. Thanks to PCIe 3.0 connectivity with 8 lanes, a sufficient bandwidth of 64 Gbit / s is provided for the HDDs / SSDs. An additional alternative low-profile shield is included with the RAID controller.

Note: There are no cables included to connect drives to the two Mini SAS outputs (SFF8087) on the controller card. These must be purchased separately, for example in the form of ZUSA-186 in the Caseking range.
