Description:
IBM Server RAID 5I SCSI Controller w/battery
IBM Part# 25P3492
IBM Part# 02R0970

Overview:
This controller makes it easy to afford and deploy high-performing RAID configurations to help protect your data and help keep systems available. Thanks to efficient low-profile design it smoothly integrates with densely packed rack-mounted servers to help streamline your data center. And by using onboard SCSI technology it drives down the cost of enterprise-class data protection. The cost-efficient &~148;zero channel&~148; design of the ServeRAID-5i Controller allows it to operate through the SCSI interface that's built into the motherboard of select xSeries systems. It delivers full hardware RAID functionality by taking control of the onboard Ultra320 SCSI chip in these servers. It's able to transform the built-in basic mirroring capability of the chip into dual RAID channels that support nine different levels of RAID protection.
