MegaRAID SAS RAID Controller Characteristics
6Gb/s MegaRAID SAS RAID Controller Family
3.1.10 MegaRAID SAS 9286 RAID Controllers
The MegaRAID SAS 9286-8e low-profile SAS/SATA RAID controller controls eight external SAS/SATA ports through two
SFF-8088 x4 external mini SAS connectors.
The MegaRAID SAS 9286CV-8e low-profile SAS/SATA RAID controller controls eight external SAS/SATA ports through
two SFF-8088 x4 external mini SAS connectors. This controller supports the CVFM03 onboard 1-GB nonvolatile DDR3
1333MT/s Cache Vault Flash Module 03, which connects to a remote Cache Vault Power Module 02 to provide backup
for your data in case of power loss.
The MegaRAID SAS 9286CV-8iCC RAID controller controls eight internal SAS+SATA ports through two SFF-8087 mini
SAS 4i internal connectors. This controller supports the CVFM03 onboard 1-GB nonvolatile DDR3 1333MT/s
Cache Vault Flash Module 03, which connects to a remote Cache Vault Power Module 02 to provide backup for your
data in case of power loss. This RAID controller ships as standard with CacheCade (CC) Pro 2.0 and Fast Path software
enabled out of the box.
J2A1 Activity LED header 2-pin connector
Connects to an LED that indicates activity on the drives
connected to the controller.
J2A2 Advanced Software Options Hardware Key header 3-pin header
Enables support for the Advanced Software Options
features, which include CacheCade, FastPath, Recovery, and
SafeStore disk encryption.
J2A4 I 2 O Mode jumper 2-pin connector
Installing this jumper causes the RAID controller to run in I
2
O
mode. The default mode of operation is without the shunt
and running in Fusion mode.
J2B1 Standard Edge Card connector The RAID controller interfaces with the host system though a
standard edge card.
This interface provides power to the board and an I
2
C
interface connected to the I 2 C bus for IPMI.
J4A1 Serial EEPROM 2-pin connector
Provides controller information, such as the serial number,
revision, and manufacturing date. The default is no
shunt installed.
J4A2 LSI Test header 2-pin connector
Reserved for LSI use.
J5A1 Serial Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter
(UART) connector for the expander 4-pin connector
Reserved for LSI use.
J5B1 DDR3 Board-to-Board Mezzanine connector 240-pin DDR3 nonvolatile memory module interface
Connects the controller directly to a CVFM02 module. The
CVFM02 module connects to a remote CVPM02 module.
Refer to the MegaRAID Cache Vault Flash Module 02 Quick
Installation Guide for the procedure used to connect a
CVFM02 module to a remote CVPM02 module.
J6A1 Serial Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter
(UART) connector for the expander 4-pin connector
