9380-4i4e
High Performance 12Gb/s PCI Express
SATA+SAS RAID Controller
Outstanding RAID Performance for Next-Generation
Servers and Storage
The explosive growth of data in cloud and enterprise data centers is
driving the need for a higher performance storage interface to speed the
ability of critical applications to access data. Broadcom first-to-market
12Gb/s SAS solutions are designed to deliver the performance and data
protection capabilities required for the most demanding next-generation
server and storage platforms. Offering up to double the data transfer
rate of 6Gb/s SAS solutions, 12Gb/s SAS allows the SAS infrastructure
to deliver bandwidth that can fully utilize that of PCI Express 3.0 with a
single controller card. The MegaRAID® SAS 9380-4i4e, with four internal
and four external ports, delivers two 1.2GHz PowerPC processor cores
and a 72-bit DDRIII interface that drives 1GB cache memory. Powered by
the LSISAS3108 dual-core ROC, the 9380-4i4e controller includes the
latest PCI Express 3.0 and 12Gb/s SAS technology and is designed for
configuring both internal storage and external JBOD storage enclosures
with high-performance SAS hard drives, high-capacity SATA hard drives or
application-accelerating solid state drives (SSDs).
Key Features
• High performance 12Gb/s data
transfer rates
• Four internal / Four external 12Gb/s
SATA+SAS ports
• One mini-SAS SFF8643 internal
connector
• One mini-SAS SFF8644 external
connector
• LSISAS3108: 1.2GHz PowerPC® 476
dual core 12Gb/s ROC
• PCI Express 3.0 host interface
• 1GB DDRIII cache memory
• RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, and 60
• Support for CacheVault

Enterprise Data Protection
Standard support for the most popular RAID levels and accessories,
including RAID 5, RAID 6, and CacheVault flash cache protection module,
further strengthen the data protection capabilities of the MegaRAID SAS
9380-4i4e. A new enterprise feature employed by the 12Gb/s MegaRAID
SAS controllers is advanced drive diagnostic technology. In the event of a
physical drive failure, the drive is placed in shield state and the MegaRAID
controller starts drive diagnostics to determine if the drive is indeed failed
or can be restored. This saves customers time, money and lost compute
time associated with transient drive failures and unnecessary drive returns.
Key Advantages
• 12Gb/s solutions accelerate
performance for next-generation
data centers, web and cloud
• Delivers enterprise-class data
protection and security
• Preserves investment in 6Gb/s and
3Gb/s drives
• Support for Broadcom Advanced
Software options
• Connect up to 240 3Gb/s, 6Gb/s, or
12Gb/s SATA and SAS devices
Support for Advanced Software Options
The Broadcom family of 12Gb/s MegaRAID controllers are designed to
support advanced software options that provide system integrators
and VARs with enhanced performance and data protection capabilities.
These software options help enable end users to address key business
challenges while helping to deliver a higher return on their IT investments.
MegaRAID CacheCade® Pro 2.0 software (optional) and MegaRAID Fast
Path software (included) boost transactional I/O performance of solid state
disk configurations, while SafeStore™ software enables enhanced data
protection and security when used with encryption capable devices.
