Product Overview
The Intel
®
RAID Controller RS3DC040/RS3DC080 is a PCI-Express
®
(PCIe
®
) 3.0, low-profile controller with RAID control
capability, based on the LSISAS3108 RAID On-a-Chip (ROC) device.
• 12.0 Gb/s SAS III performance
The Intel
®
RAID Controller RS3DC040 uses 1 GB of DDR3 1866-MHz memory and controls four internal Serial Attached SCSI
(SAS) / Serial Advanced Technology Attachment (SATA) ports through one SFF-8643 mini-SAS HD-4i internal connector.
These 12Gb/s Intel
®
RAID Controllers are based on the LSI first-to-market SAS IC technology and proven MegaRAID
technology. As third-generation PCIe RAID controllers, these controllers address the growing demand for increased data
throughput and scalability requirements across midrange and enterprise-class server platforms. These RAID controllers provide
these features:
• 6.0 Gb/s SATA III performance
• Eight-lane 8 GT/s PCIe host interface
SAS technology brings a wealth of options and flexibility with the use of SAS devices and SATA devices within the same storage
infrastructure. However, SAS devices and SATA devices bring individual characteristics that make each one a more suitable
choice depending on your storage needs. MegaRAID products give you the flexibility to combine these two similar technologies
on the same controller, within the same enclosure, and in the same virtual drive.
NOTE: These RAID controllers support SATA II and SATA III technologies.
For more information, including the technical specifications for your RAID controller, refer to the 12Gb/s Intel

NOTE: Record your RAID controller serial number in a safe location in case you need to contact Intel.
The Intel
®
RAID Controller RS3DC080 uses 1 GB of DDR3 1866-MHz memory and controls eight internal Serial Attached SCSI
(SAS) / Serial Advanced Technology Attachment (SATA) ports through two SFF-8643 mini-SAS HD-4i internal connectors. This
capability lets you use a system that supports both enterprise-class SAS drives and desktop-class SATA III drives.
