6Gb/s MegaRAID SAS RAID Controller Family
The following table describes the jumpers and the connectors on the MegaRAID SAS 9240-4i and MegaRAID SAS
9240-8i RAID controllers.
3.1.2 MegaRAID SAS 9260 RAID Controllers
The MegaRAID SAS 9260-4i low-profile SAS/SATA RAID controller controls four internal SAS/SATA ports through one
SFF-8087 x4 internal mini SAS connector.
The MegaRAID SAS 9260-8i low-profile SAS/SATA RAID controller controls eight internal SAS/SATA ports through two
SFF-8087 x4 internal mini SAS connectors.
The MegaRAID SAS 9260CV-4i low-profile SAS/SATA RAID controller controls four internal SAS/SATA ports through one
SFF-8087 x4 internal mini SAS connector, and has a nonvolatile CVFM01 module attached. The CVFM01 module
connects to a CVPM01 module to provide backup for your data in case of power loss.
The MegaRAID SAS 9260CV-8i low-profile SAS/SATA RAID controller controls eight internal SAS/SATA ports through
two SFF-8087 x4 internal mini SAS connectors, and has a nonvolatile CVFM01 module attached. The CVFM01 module
connects to a CVPM01 module to provide backup for your data in case of power loss.
The MegaRAID SAS 9260DE-8i low-profile SAS/SATA RAID controller controls eight internal SAS/SATA ports through
two SFF-8087 x4 internal mini SAS connectors and offers data security by using disk encryption.
The MegaRAID SAS 9260-16i standard-height SAS/SATA RAID controller controls 16 internal SAS/SATA ports through
four SFF-8087 x4 internal mini SAS connectors.
