Description
The MegaRAID 9600 series is the third generation of Broadcom’s industry leading Tri-Mode x8 and x16 NVMe/SAS/SATA storage adapters. Designed to deliver the best possible performance for NVMe SSD-based storage systems, the 9600 family delivers 2x the bandwidth, over 4x the IOPs, 25x reduction in write latency, and 60x increase in performance during rebuilds over the previous generation.
The MegaRAID 9670W-16i based on the SAS4116W RAID-on-Chip (RoC) delivers more than 4x increase in RAID5 Random Write Ops and twice the bandwidth over the previous generation. The 9670W-16i’s advanced thermal solution enables these major performance enhancements without increasing airflow requirements when compared to previous generation adapters. Users can incorporate the 9670W-16i into existing platforms to enable breakthrough SSD performance without burdening the system with additional cooling and airflow requirements.
