Connections
Overview
Avago SAS 9207-8i host bus adapter provides high performance for internal drive connectivity
in 1U/2U servers and workstations. The SAS 9207-8i provides 8 lanes of 6Gb/s SAS and
is matched with 8 lanes of PCI Express (PCIe) 3.0, 8Gb/s performance to eliminate any
performance bottlenecks. Performance is based on the SAS 2308 6Gb/s SAS IO Controller that
highly integrates the latest enhancements in PCIe and SAS technology.
The SAS 9207-8i has two (x4) internal mini-SAS connectors (SFF8087) and provides SAS and
SATA data transfer rates of 1.5, 3, and 6Gb/s per lane and can achieve over 650K IOPs.
