E10M20-T1

Boost storage performance for demanding workloads Synology M2D20 is a M.2 NVMe SSD adapter card designed to supercharge your NAS I/O performance. The multi-queue capability of NVMe SSD greatly benefits latency-sensitive applications such as photo indexing, file search, and virtualization deployments. - Accelerate random I/O performance with the dual M.2 2280/22110 NVMe SSD slots. - Free up primary drive bays for data storage. - Upgrade your existing storage infrastructure efficiently.

The following specification describes a custom x4 high profile PCIe add-in card that will provide 1 rear customer facing and 1 internal Thunderbolt™ 4 (TBT4) branded ports. The x4 high profile PCIe add-in card will utilize the Maple Ridge controller to connect 1 rear and 1internal TBT4 ports, 2 mini display ports (to be used as inputs from graphics cards) and 1 mini display port for connection to an external monitor. The x4 high profile PCIe add-in card's internal TBT4 port will be used for possible future TBT offerings through use of a TBT bridge or hub.

Quad M.2 NVMe / AHCI | PCIe 4.0 x16 Slot | Bifurcation

This Quad M.2 PCIe SSD Adapter adds up to four high performance PCIe M.2 SSDs (NVMe and AHCI) using the PCIe x16 slot of a desktop, workstation, or server.

Boost System Performance

Take full advantage of the fast performance and compact size of PCIe M.2 internal solid-state drives, with read and write speeds up to 7.8GBps per drive.

Access Four M.2 PCIe SSDs Simultaneously

No on-board chip leads to wide system compatibility. This card requires PCIe bifurcation, meaning it easily integrates into any system with an available x16 PCIe slot that supports PCIe bifurcation.

Utilize software RAID, such as Storage Spaces (Microsoft) or mdraid/mdadm (Linux), to build a RAID array, adding redundancy or enhancing system performance.

Wide Compatibility

The PCIe M.2 NGFF (M Key or B+M Key) adapter supports PCIe NVMe and PCIe AHCI M.2 SSDs including 2242, 2260, 2280 and 22110mm drives. The PCIe M.2 Adapter Card does not require any software or drivers, meaning it works with most operating systems - if the computer/motherboard supports bifurcation.

Vented Brackets

The pre-installed full-profile vented bracket increases air flow to improve heat dissipation, which aids in maintaining optimal and reliable operating temperatures.

The StarTech.com Advantage

Do you need a cost effective controller that provides fast access to the data on the direct attached or shared storage drives and you do not have the room in your server to add additional storage? The HP H241 Smart Host Bus Adapter comes in a low profile, PCIe3 x8 standup form factor that provides the Gen9 Servers a reliable, high performing SAS connectivity to the data in the direct attached or shared storage solutions. Featuring eight external physical links, it delivers 12 Gb/s SAS performance.

The H241 Smart Host Bus Adapter provides flexibility to run as an HBA mode or simple RAID mode. When operating in simple RAID mode, it provides RAID 0, RAID 1, and RAID 5 with optional HP Secure Encryption capabilities.

Unlike the HP Smart Array Controllers, the H241 does not offer any acceleration or support cache modules. The controller is also ideal for data backup to an external tape drives.

Features
Cost-Effective External SAS Storage Connectivity

The HP H241 Smart Host Bus Adapter comes in a low-profile, PCIe3 x8 standup form factor that provides a basic building block for simple RAID storage solution for HP Gen9 Servers.

Delivering up to 12 Gb/s SAS connectivity to the direct attached & shared storage providing increased scalability, basic data protection, and flexibility for external storage connectivity.

You get optimized performance and uptime for your entry-level storage requirements.

This HBA supports SAS, SATA, Solid State Drives (SSDs) and external tape drives for increased flexibility.

Efficient and Simple Configuration, Deployment and Management

The HP H241 Host Bus Adapter and the shared storage devices are configured, deployed and managed by the easy to use HP Smart Storage Administrator software which is included in the intelligent provisioning capabilities of the server.

Delivers proactive service warnings and analysis based on Solid State Drive (SSD) endurance reports from the HP SmartSSD Wear Gauge utility.

Simplify the management of the shared storage pool with HP Smart Storage Administrator.
