Product Brief
MegaRAID SAS 9365-28i
28-Port, Full-Height 12Gb/s PCI Express
SATA+SAS RAID Controller
Broadcom 12Gb/s SAS Solutions; Connectivity
Innovation
The explosive growth of data in cloud and enterprise data centers is driving
the need for a higher performance storage interface to increase the speed
of critical applications to access data. Broadcom 12Gb/s SAS solutions
are designed to deliver the performance and data protection capabilities
required for the most demanding next-generation server and storage
platforms. Oering up to double the data transfer rate of 6Gb/s SAS
solutions, 12Gb/s SAS allows the SAS infrastructure to deliver bandwidth
that can fully utilize that of PCI Express 3.0 with a single controller card.
Key Features
• High-performance 12Gb/s data
transfer rates
• 28 internal 12Gb/s SATA+SAS ports
• Six Mini SAS HD SFF-8643 connectors
• One SlimLine SFF-8654 connector
• SAS3508 RAID-On-Chip (ROC)
• x8 PCI Express 3.0 host interface
• 4GB DDR4 cache memory
• RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, and 60
• Support for CacheVault flash cache
protection
Key Advantages
• 12Gb/s solutions accelerate
performance for next-generation data
centers, web and cloud
• Delivers enterprise-class data
protection and security
• Preserves investment in 6Gb/s and
3Gb/s drives
• Support for Broadcom SafeStore
software, which manages selfencrypting drives (SEDs) attached to
MegaRAID controllers for higher levels
of security
• CacheVault Power Module CVPM05
option for remote connection via cable
• Direct connect up to 28, 3Gb/s, 6Gb/s
or 12Gb/s SATA and SAS devices
Industry’s Highest Port Count RAID Controller
The MegaRAID® SAS 9365-28i, with twenty-eight internal ports in a fullheight form factor, delivers two 1.2GHz PowerPC processor cores and a
72-bit DDR4 interface that drives 4GB cache memory. Powered by the
Broadcom SAS3508 dual-core ARM A15 Tri-Mode ROC, the 9365-28i
controller can take full advantage of the latest PCI Express 3.0 interface to
provide higher performance and increased throughput. The MegaRAID SAS
9365-28i is designed for configuring high-density storage servers with up
to 28 drives via direct connection inside the box.
Enterprise Data Protection
The MegaRAID SAS 9365-28i RAID controller supports data retention
by using NAND flash memory down on the controller, backed up by
a CacheVault Power Module 05 (CVPM05). The CVPM05 module is a
supercapacitor pack that provides power for the backup of your data
in case of host power loss or server failure. The CVPM05 module is
connected to the controller remotely by cable. The data is backed up to
the NAND flash memory on the MegaRAID controller board. Standard
support for the most popular RAID levels, including RAID 5 and RAID 6,
further strengthens the data protection capabilities of the MegaRAID SAS
9365-28i. A new enterprise feature employed by the 12Gb/s MegaRAID
SAS controllers is advanced drive diagnostic technology. In the event of a
physical drive failure, the drive is placed in shield state and the MegaRAID
controller starts drive diagnostics to determine if the drive is indeed failed
or can be restored. This saves customers time, money and lost compute
time associated with transient drive failures and unnecessary drive returns.
