This is a high-performance SAS RAID controller designed for servers and storage systems that require reliable data management and redundancy. It supports up to four SAS or SATA drives, making it ideal for small to medium-sized storage arrays. The controller features 512MB of DDR SDRAM for efficient data caching and processing, ensuring smooth operation even under heavy workloads. It connects via a PCIe 2.0 x8 interface, providing fast data transfer speeds and compatibility with modern server motherboards.

The controller uses a Mini-SAS connector (SFF-8087) for connecting to storage devices, which is compact and suitable for high-density server environments. It supports RAID levels such as 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, and 60, allowing users to configure their storage arrays for performance or data protection. The SAS9260-4I model is known for its reliability and compatibility with various operating systems, including Windows, Linux, and VMware. It is commonly used in enterprise environments where data integrity and performance are critical.

Installation requires a free PCIe x8 slot on the motherboard and a power supply capable of supporting the connected drives. The controller comes with necessary firmware and drivers for immediate use. Users should ensure that their system's BIOS/UEFI settings are configured to recognize the PCIe device properly. It is recommended to use high-quality SAS/SATA drives to fully leverage the controller's capabilities.

The controller is not suitable for systems with limited PCIe bandwidth or those that require more than four drive connections. It does not support NVMe drives or advanced features like SSD caching or hardware encryption. However, it provides a solid foundation for RAID configurations in environments where simplicity and reliability are prioritized over cutting-edge features.
