Adaptec 6405H 2278000-R Ficha De Dados

SERIES 6H   

DATA SHEET

4- and 8-port PCIe Gen2 HBAs offer broad device compatibility, 
scalability, and fl exibility

(6405H, 6805H)

Th e Series 6H family of Adaptec by PMC SAS/

SATA host bus adapters (HBA) off ers the ideal 

economical solution for customers requiring 

high-performance I/O connectivity. 

Th e HBAs connect to hard disk drives (HDDs), 

solid-state drives (SSDs), removable media, 

and SAS tape drives, and support the migration 

of disks from onboard SATA interfaces or other 

SATA/SAS I/O controllers.

Flexible, Scalable, Customizable
Using PMC’s PM8001 SAS protocol controller 

and a PCIe Gen2 interface, Series 6H HBAs 

support both Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) and 

Serial ATA (SATA) interfaces to provide the 

fl exibility to use cost-eff ective, high-capacity 

SATA drives and/or high-performance SAS 

drives. 

Compatibility with a multitude of storage 

devices enables system builders to develop 

server, storage, and backup solutions tailored 

to meet specifi c customer needs.

Series 6H HBAs also support SAS expanders, 

allowing end users to scale-up and design an 

optimal price-per-drive solution.

Series 6H HBAs feature a form factor shorter 

than low-profi le MD2, enabling easy installation 

and cable connections in dense server 

environments where space is at a premium. 

Th e PCIe x4 bus expands connectivity from 

high-end servers into workstation-class and 

industrial PC systems. Up to 8 SAS ports allow 

for maximum I/O throughput, and the OS 

drivers use MSI-X to leverage all available host 

CPU cores to achieve maximum performance.

Broad Operating System Support
Extensive operating system support includes 

major soft ware releases for Windows 8, 

Windows 7, Windows Server 2012, Windows 

2008R2 & SBS 2011, VMware 5.x, Red Hat 

Enterprise Linux, SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 

and Debian Linux.

Compatibility, Reliability, and Support 
Series 6H HBAs have been extensively tested 

with third-party systems and devices to deliver 

the utmost in compatibility. Th ese HBAs are 

equipped with both uEFI and legacy BIOS 

options as well as a CTRL-A confi guration 

utility and HII-based BIOS tools.

Series 6H HBAs are backed by a three year 

warranty and the company’s technical support 

team.
