IBM Redbooks Product Guide
The ServeRAID M5115 SAS/SATA Controller is a high-performance offering for IBM Flex System™
compute nodes. It enables a high-performance RAID solution composed of combinations of SAS or SATA
drives or high-throughput solid-state drives (SSDs). The offering is designed around a base RAID adapter
with a set of upgrades that are rich with features, designed to minimize parts-on-the-floor, optimized for
storage performance, and consistent with existing industry-leading ServeRAID products.

The ServeRAID M5115 SAS/SATA Controller for IBM Flex System is capable of delivering several
focused solutions depending on business needs, offering two-drive HDD connectivity or support for up to
eight 1.8-inch SSDs or combinations of HDDs and SSDs. Software upgrades include SSD performance
features or an extra layer of redundancy with RAID 6. These solutions are realized by pairing M5115 with
one or more available hardware kits and Feature-on-Demand license upgrades.

Did you know?
The ServeRAID M5115 SAS/SATA controller is optimized for high-performance, internal data storage that
integrates a dual-core chip architecture, DDR3 1333 MHz cache memory, and PCIe 3.0 host interface.
Upgrade features, such as support for RAID 6/60, performance optimization, and caching with SSDs, no
longer require a hardware key, as they are implemented through Features-on-Demand (FoD) software
licenses.
