Product Description

The Dell PERC H800 SAS External RAID Controller is designed to manage multiple hard drives to improve performance and provide data redundancy. It's often found in server environments where reliable storage management is critical, such as data centers and enterprise IT setups.

Built for IT professionals and system administrators, this controller helps ensure data integrity and speeds up access to stored information by offloading RAID calculations from the server CPU. It's commonly used with Dell PowerEdge servers to expand storage options and manage external SAS devices efficiently.

Key Features

  • Hardware-based RAID processing for improved server performance
  • 512MB cache to buffer data and enhance read/write speeds
  • Wide RAID level support for flexible storage configurations
  • External SAS connectivity supporting multiple drive enclosures
  • Compatible with various Dell PowerEdge server models

This RAID controller is typically deployed in medium to large-scale server systems requiring robust storage solutions. It plays a critical role in safeguarding data through RAID protection while optimizing system responsiveness. Many organizations depend on it to maintain uptime and secure business-critical information in demanding environments.


Use Cases

The Dell PERC H800 External SAS RAID Controller is primarily deployed in enterprise data centers and large-scale server environments where external SAS storage arrays require high-performance management. IT administrators and infrastructure engineers benefit most from this controller when optimizing storage reliability and throughput for critical workloads.

How It's Used:

  • Managing external disk arrays in Dell PowerEdge rack servers within virtualization clusters to ensure data integrity and fast access.
  • Supporting high-availability storage configurations in enterprise IT environments running database and analytics workloads.
  • Enabling scalable storage expansions for mid-sized data centers with intensive I/O demands.
  • Facilitating hardware RAID acceleration for backup and disaster recovery solutions where consistent performance is crucial.
  • Optimizing performance in storage area networks (SAN) that require robust RAID levels to balance speed and redundancy.

This controller enhances operational efficiency by offloading RAID calculations from the host CPU, supporting scalable storage deployments while maintaining low latency. Its role in accelerating data throughput and providing flexible RAID management aligns with the needs of demanding enterprise storage infrastructures.
