Overview
About the HPE Dynamic Smart Array B140i RAID
controller
The HPE Dynamic Smart Array B140i RAID controller is a RAID solution combining SATA ports and
proprietary software components. Eliminating most of the hardware RAID controller components, and
relocating advanced RAID algorithms from a hardware-based controller into device driver software lowers
the total solution cost, while still maintaining comparable RAID protection and full compatibility with Smart
Array disk format, configuration utilities, and management/monitoring software.
The Dynamic Smart Array controllers share the same easy and consistent UI with standup Smart Array
controllers, thus making storage management and deployment easier for IT workers.
