SmartRAID 3100 Series: 24i/8i16e/16i/8i8e/8i/8e/4i
12 Gbps PCIe Gen3 SAS/SATA RAID Adapters
Preliminary Product Information
Maximum Performance and Flexibility
Data center, Enterprise IT, and general consumer server environments have a
broad range of requirements—from basic connectivity to extreme data storage
capacities. Effective data access and protection is crucial to their ultimate
success. The 12 Gbps SmartRAID 3100 adapters, coupled with 12 Gbps
SSDs, provide maximum read/write bandwidth and IOPS as well as acceleration
and latency optimization through caching for the most performance-hungry
transactional and database applications. Furthermore, the SmartRAID 3100,
built upon the unified Smart Storage stack, unlocks all features and performance
of the HBA 1100 when the drives are configured as raw devices.
maxCache 4.0 SSD Caching
maxCache accelerates HDD-based RAID arrays and logical drives, advancing
the performance capabilities for a broader set of application workloads.
SmartRAID 315x adapters support read- and write-back caching. By
caching writes to a redundant SSD cache pool, maxCache 4.0 leverages the
performance and latency capabilities of SSD technology for both read and write
workloads. Read performance is also improved by caching frequently accessed
data on the SSD tier with additional optimizations through the learned-path
algorithm, which leverages the aggregate performance of all available storage
devices.
Benefits
• Ideal for enabling 12 Gbps storage capabilities
in performance-hungry server and workstation
platforms, without compromising proven
Microsemi reliability
• Provides high I/O transaction and high
bandwidth processing solutions that reduce
energy consumption and maintenance costs
• Accelerates storage with up to 4 GB of high-
speed DRAM cache with integrated cache
protection (SmartRAID 315x SKUs only)
Integrated Cache Protection
The SmartRAID family continues Microsemi's battery-free portfolio. The
SmartRAID 315x Series integrates flash-based cache backup to enable instant
cache protection. The tethered Microsemi Adaptec ASCM-35Fw capacitor
module supports a five-year lifetime and is continuously monitored by the
Smart firmware to make sure that the data can be safely backed up to the flash
memory on the SmartRAID adapter in case of a power loss.
Highlights
• maxCache 4.0 caching software
• RAID levels: 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60, 1 ADM, and
10 ADM
• Supports simultaneous use of RAID and raw
devices (mixed mode)
• Fifth-generation zero-maintenance cache
protection (ZMCP)
• Up to 24 native SAS/SATA ports in a LP/MD2
design
• 12 Gbps and 6 Gbps compatibility with HDD or
SSD SAS/SATA devices
• 12 Gbps throughput per SAS port using
mini-SAS HD connectors
• 1.7M random read 4 KB IOPS
1
• Industry's lowest-power 28 nm SmartROC
SAS/SATA protocol controller
• Quality and reliability through the unified,
hardened Smart Storage stack, which is
deployed in over 30M servers
16- and 24-port adapters can achieve 1.7M random read IOPS for 4 KB I/Os.
Adapters with 8 ports and fewer are capable of 1.5M IOPS.

Advanced Data Protection and Ease of Use
Microsemi's industry-leading Smart Storage stack delivers maximum reliability
and best-in-class performance that all RAID levels come to expect, plus
unique features like Mixed Mode support (RAID and HBA devices can be used
simultaneously), adapter power management (reduces power consumption up
to 30 percent), and advanced data management (ADM) features that allow data
migration from existing RAID arrays to new ones when upgrading old hard disks
or worn-out SSDs.
Microsemi's Adaptec maxView provides an HTML5 web interface that can be
used in standard desktops and mobile browsers for all storage configuration
and management needs. It supports local and remote management, and comes
with plugins for major storage management software suites for enterprises and
data centers.
