Intel RS3GC008 ユーザーズマニュアル
The new Intel® RAID 12Gb/s controller RS3 family provides the next generation of storage performance to meet the
current and future demands of today’s datacenters. These entry-level controllers are also perfect for 3Gb/s and 6Gb/s as
they provide a faster processor and also allow for 12Gb/s data transfer when teamed with a SAS-3 compliant expander.
This provides room to grow by paving the way for 12Gb/s infrastructures as server demands increase and technology
progresses.

Hybrid RAID 5 with RS3WC080 – The Intel® RAID Controller RS3WC080 design is based on LSI MegaRAID*
technology that offers RAID 5 capability with many of the same features as Intel’s mainstream RAID products. (Note:
RAID 5 is firmware based but utilizes system resources, which makes it “Hybrid”.)
