Chapter 3: MegaRAID SAS RAID Controller Characteristics

Technical Specifications

3.3.3

Fault Tolerance

The following table lists the fault tolerance features for the 12Gb/s MegaRAID SATA+SAS RAID controllers.

3.3.4

Electrical Characteristics

This subsection provides the power supply requirements for the 12Gb/s MegaRAID SATA+SAS RAID controllers.

3.3.4.1

Power Supply Requirements for the MegaRAID SAS 9341 RAID Controller

All power is supplied to the MegaRAID SAS 9341 RAID controller through the PCIe 12V rail. Onboard switching
regulator circuitry operating from the 12V rail provides the necessary voltages.

The supply voltages are 12V ± 8 percent (from PCI edge connector only). The following table lists the power supply for
the MegaRAID SAS 9341 RAID controller at peak mode and at normal power mode.

3.3.4.2

Operating and Nonoperating Conditions for MegaRAID SAS 9341 RAID Controllers

For the MegaRAID SAS 9341-8i RAID controller, the operating (thermal and atmospheric) conditions are as follows:

Relative humidity range is 5 percent to 90 percent noncondensing

Airflow must be at least 75 linear feet per minute (LFPM) to avoid operating the LSISAS3008 processor above the
maximum ambient temperature

Temperature range: 0 °C to +55 °C

The parameters for the nonoperating (such as storage and transit) environment for these controllers are as follows:

Relative humidity range is 5 percent to 90 percent noncondensing.

Temperature range: –45 °C to +105 °C
