Product Brief
LSI SAS 9200-8e
8-Port, 6Gb/s SAS+SATA to PCI Express
Host Bus Adapter
8-Port SAS HBA Provides High Performance for External JBOD and External
RAID Enclosures
Overview
The LSI SAS 9200-8e, dual port, host bus adapter provides high performance connectivity for
external JBOD and external RAID enclosures. The LSI SAS 9200-8e provides 8 lanes of 6Gb/s
SAS connectivity to 8 lanes of PCI Express 2.0 5Gb/s performance to eliminate bottlenecks.
Performance is based on the LSISAS2008 IO controller that highly integrates the latest
LSI SAS 9200-8e
enhancements in PCI Express and SAS technology. The HBA supports up to 512 SAS 2.0
compliant devices.
The LSI SAS 9200-8e has two (x4) external mini- SAS connectors (SFF8088) enabling a low
profile solution that can achieve over 320,000 IOPs. Automatic speed negotiation for SAS

Fusion MPT Architecture
The LSI SAS host bus adapters are based on the Fusion MPT™ architected SAS controllers,
which implements LSI’s Fusion-MPT (Message Passing Technology) architecture. Each
controller features embedded PowerPC™ processors that deliver maximum host CPU offload.
The builtin intelligence enables LSI to publish a single binary OS driver to operate any Fusion
MPT controller or adapter. The architecture enables high performance, reduced software
development, and faster time to market.
