Overview Support
 
Intel® RAID Controller SRCSAS18E An Eight-Port RAID Solution Delivering High Performance and Reliability

The Intel® RAID Controller SRCSAS18E is the first Intel RAID Controller to support both Serial ATA (SATA) and Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) devices. This gives businesses the ability to customize RAID solutions and help lower the total cost of ownership with a standardized server and storage infrastructure.

The RAID Controller SRCSAS18E supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, and 50 and enclosure management using SAF-TE, SES2, and Serial GPIO protocols. The controller simplifies long-term server operation and maintenance by providing auto rebuild, remote Web-based management of the RAID array through the Intel RAID Web Console 2 utility, and both online capacity expansion and RAID-level migration.
