SAS Controller Card

Your system provides support for an internal SAS controller card to be used
for the SAS storage subsystem for your system's internal or hot-pluggable
hard drives. The controller card supports all-SAS or all-SATA hard drive
configurations and also enables you to set up the hard drives in a RAID
configuration. Supported RAID configurations vary according to the version
of the SAS controller card included with your system and both RAID and
non-RAID versions of the controller card are available. See the RAID user
documentation for information on the available RAID configurations and for
instructions on how to set up a RAID configuration.
