The LSISAS2208 is LSI's third-generation Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) RAID-On-a-Chip (ROC) device utilizing the Fusion-MPT™ architecture. It integrates the latest enhancements in SAS and PCI Express technology. It supports 8 PCIe lanes and complies with the PCI Express 3.0 specification, supporting data rates up to 8.0 GT/s per lane. The device supports 8 SAS/SATA ports with data transfer rates of 1.5, 3, and 6Gb/s per lane. It features hardware acceleration engines for RAID 5 and RAID 6 parity calculations and a high-performance dual-core PowerPC 440 RISC processor. It is available with or without hardware data encryption. It is the core chip for many LSI MegaRAID SAS 2208-based RAID controllers, such as the 9260, 9261, 9270, and 9280 series controllers, which may offer various port configurations (internal/external) and cache sizes (e.g., 512MB or 1GB DDR3).
