General Description
1.1.2 Support for CacheVault Flash Modules and CacheVault Power Modules
The following 12Gb/s MegaRAID SAS RAID controllers support the CacheVault Module Kit LSICVM02, which includes a
CacheVault Flash Module (CVFM) 04 module, a CacheVault Power Module (CVPM) 02 module, a clip, and a cable.
MegaRAID SAS 9361-4i RAID controller
MegaRAID SAS 9361-8i RAID controller
MegaRAID SAS 9380-4i4e RAID controller
MegaRAID SAS 9380-8e RAID controller
The CVFM04 module is an Open NAND Flash Interface (ONFI) flash module that provides cache offload capability to
protect cached data in case of host power loss or server failure. The CVPM02 module is a super-capacitor pack that
provides power to back up your data in case of host power loss or server failure.
You can install the CVFM04 module directly on the RAID connector, and then connect the CVFM04 module by cable to
a remote CVPM02 module that you attach to a remote mount board.
ATTENTION You cannot hot-plug CVPM modules. Removing or inserting a
CVPM module with the server powered on damages the board and the
battery functionality. To attach or remove a CVPM module from a
controller, you must fully power down the controller before you attach
the module to or remove the module from its mating connector.
For more information about the CVFM04 module and the CVPM02 module, refer to the LSICVM02 Kit Quick Installation
Guide or the Cache Backup Products for MegaRAID SAS+SATA RAID Controllers User Guide on the MegaRAID Universal
Software Suite CD.
1.2 General Description
The 12Gb/s MegaRAID SATA+SAS RAID controllers bring 12Gb/s Serial Attached SCSI and 6Gb/s SATA III performance
to host adapter, workstation, and server designs. The 12Gb/s MegaRAID SAS 9341 RAID controllers are based on the
LSISAS3008 PCIe-to-SAS/SATA controller. The following 12Gb/s MegaRAID SAS controllers are based on the
LSISAS3108 PCIe RoC device:
MegaRAID SAS 9361-4i and SAS 9361-8i RAID controllers
MegaRAID SAS 9380-4i4e RAID controller
MegaRAID SAS 9380-8e RAID controller
The controllers support internal storage devices and/or external storage devices, which allow you to use a system that
supports enterprise-class SAS drives and desktop-class SATA III drives. Each 12Gb/s MegaRAID SATA+SAS RAID
controller can connect to drives and can use expanders to connect to additional drives. Simplified cabling between
devices is an additional benefit.
These devices are compliant with the Fusion-MPT™ architecture and provides a PCIe x8 interface. Each port on the
MegaRAID SAS controllers supports SAS devices, SATA devices, or both, using SSP, SMP, STP, and SATA. The SSP
protocol enables the MegaRAID SAS controllers to communicate with other SAS devices. The SATA protocol enables
the MegaRAID SAS controllers to communicate with SATA devices.
NOTE All of these RAID controllers provide an x8 PCIe 3.0 interface.
