These Intel Xeon processors with up to 8 MB L2 cache feature Intel Core
microarchitecture with increased overall performance, greater energy efficiency,
and more responsive multitasking. They help reduce thermal burdens in server
datacenters.
ServeRAID-MR10is VAULT - 44E8695
ServeRAID-MR10is VAULT is a RAID controller with built-in crypto engine to encrypt
data written to the hard drives. With an easy-to-use GUI it simplifies the complexity
of key management, setup, and configuration.
This leading-edge implementation enables lower cost for securing stored data. This
controller is applicable for the following usage scenarios:
• Helps protect sensitive data against theft
– In an unsecure physical environment
– From insiders in a secure location
• Helps during drive disposal or redeployment, helping protect against unauthorized
access
• Enhanced encryption security and performance over software encryption solutions
Sensitive data includes patient records in doctor's offices, hospitals, and insurance
companies, credit card or transaction data at retail stores and restaurants, bank
records, personnel records, intellectual property, financial records, and others.
ServeRAID-MR10is VAULT SAS/SATA Controller is a PCIe RAID controller with stored
data encryption for Internal System RAID 0, 1, 10, 5, 50, 6, and 60. This full-
height, half-length adapter utilizes an LSI 1078DE controller with an x8 PCI Express
host interface, eight internal SAS/SATA II 3 Gb/s ports, and battery-backed 256
MB 72-bit ECC DDR2 cache. MegaRAID Storage Manager (MSM), included with
ServeRAID-MR10is, is a robust RAID and encryption management, configuration,
and reporting application. The included battery enhances the ServeRAID-10is
controller's performance by allowing data written to disk to be cached in battery-
backed high-speed memory. The battery provides protection of cached data during
an unexpected power outage.
The ServeRAID-MR10M SAS/SATA PCIe Controllers (44E8825) are covered by
a one-year, Customer Replaceable Unit (CRU), limited warranty. Batteries are
consumables; therefore, not covered under this warranty.
Note: Hot-swap models have eitther a BR10i or MR10i and both contain two
ServeRAID connectors. Simple-swap models don't contain any ServeRAID
TM
connectors.
