Nytro MegaRAID Benefits
Supports Read and Write caching
Transparent to applications, file systems, OSs, and device drivers
Provides an economical solution for accelerating applications – by storing frequently accessed data on low latency Nytro Flash modules while existing SAS or SATA connected hard drives to achieve a balance of performance and cost savings
Uses Nytro Flash module reducing compatibility issues
Specialized server off load processors include the LSISAS2208 dual core RAID-on-Chip (ROC) process and two LSI SandForce® SF-2582 Nytro Flash modules
MD2 Low profile (6.6" X 2.536")
X8 PCI Express 3.0 host interface
RAID level support for Nytro Flash modules as RAID 0 or RAID 1
RAID1 is enabled when the user enables the write-back mode of the cache
On initial power up, the card auto configures as Nytro Cache Drive Group 0, RAID 1, Write Back configuration
RAID level support for hard disk drives
RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 5, and RAID 6
RAID 10, RAID 50, and RAID 60spans
Internal or external drive bay support
JBOD mode support
Nytro Flash module helps protect cache in the event of power fail; no battery is required
SuperCap kit (option) to protect DRAM content in the event of power failure if DDR Write Back is enabled
Reduced performance degradation during HDD failure and faster HDD rebuilds will occur due to servicing most storage requests from Nytro Flash module
Compatible with existing MegaRAID Storage Manager interface
Zero administrative overhead
