New Features, Smaller Form Factor
The MegaRAID SATA 300-4XLP is the latest ad-
dition to the LSI family of SATA RAID solutions.
Offering data transfer rates of up to 3Gb/s per
port in a low-profile form factor, the MegaRAID
SATA 300-4XLP addresses the growing demand
for RAID in high-density rackmount chassis
environments. Also, with the addition of
individual drive activity and fault LED headers,
users can view status of hard drives through
LEDs on the chassis.

Migrating to the Next Generation
In addition to 3Gb/s SATA transfer rates, the
MegaRAID SATA 300-4XLP supports Native
Command Queuing (NCQ) and Enclosure
Management (SAF-TE). NCQ, among the more
advanced features defined in the SATA II speci-
fication, allows for higher performance and
increased reliability by reordering commands
more efficiently. Enclosure Management (SAF-TE)
support allows administrators to manage the
status of enclosures and drives. With support for
these new SATA features, the MegaRAID SATA
300-4XLP provides a reliable and robust RAID
solution to data intensive storage applications.

Powerful RAID Management Utilities
The MegaRAID SATA 300-4XLP management
software suite consists of a complete set of tools
including two BIOS-level utilities (MegaRAID
BIOS Configuration Utility and WebBIOS),
character-based MegaManager, and graphically
powered Power Console Plus (PCP). This
selection of powerful RAID management tools
provides the capability to efficiently configure,
monitor, and manage RAID systems locally or
over a network.

Remote Battery Option for Complete
Data Protection
Data Protection
The MegaRAID LSIiBBU01 is a battery-backup
module that protects the integrity of the cached
data on a MegaRAID controller by providing
backup power if there is a complete AC power
failure or a brief power outage. The LSI Mega-
RAID battery backup units provide an inex-
pensive alternative to using an Uninterruptible
Power Supply (UPS).

The LSIiBBU01 does not connect directly to the
