PMC Adaptec Product Overview

Storage is in Our DNA
Industry-leading 12Gb/s and 6Gb/s Storage Solutions RAID Adapters,
Host Bus Adapters, and SAS Expander
12Gb/s PCIe Gen3 RAID Adapters —
Adaptec Series 8 and Series 8Q
The Adaptec Series 8 and Series 8Q RAID adapters feature PMC’s 12Gb/s RAID-on-Chip (ROC),
which combines a x8 PCIe Gen3 host interface with 12Gb/s SAS ports to enable a new
generation of high-performance RAID adapters. Adaptec Series 8/8Q RAID adapters are
available with 4, 8 or 16 native SAS/SATA ports in a Low-Profile/MD2 form factor with
mini SAS HD connectors that connect twice as many devices as the competition.
Highlights:
• Integrated Green Backup: Instant flash-based cache protection.
The Adaptec 81605ZQ and 81605Z adapters stand out with flash-based backup
embedded on the board, eliminating the need for a daughterboard
and further enhancing our green footprint.
• Adaptec maxCache3.0 (Series 8Q): Supports read and write caching. By caching
writes to a redundant SSD cache pool (RAID1, RAID1E or RAID5, maxCache 3.0 leverages
the performance and latency capabilities of SSD technology for both read and write work loads. The read caching function is also improved with maxCache 3.0, with additional
optimizations to the learned-path algorithm. Adaptec maxCache 3.0 SSD Caching
software is the only caching solution that supports up to 2 TB of SSD cache.
12Gb/s
• Performance: Up to 6.6 GB/s sequential reads and 6.2 GB/s
sequential writes. With 16 direct-connected solid-state drives (SSDs),
Series 8 adapters can deliver >700K IOPS.
Adaptec 81605ZQ
6Gb/s PCIe Gen3 RAID adapters and HBAs —
Adaptec Series 7
16 x 6Gb/s SAS ports ➔ 9600 MB/s
Adaptec Series 7 and Series 7Q RAID adapters deliver up to 6.6 GB/s on sequential reads and 5.7GB/s
on sequential writes. With 16 direct-connected solid-state drives (SSDs), Series 7/7Q adapters can deliver over 530K
IOPS — nearly 10x the performance of previous-generation RAID adapters.
While the PCIe Gen3 interface doubles bandwidth to the host compared to PCIe Gen2, it requires at least 16 6Gb/s
SAS/SATA ports to double the bandwidth to the storage devices. Competing PCIe Gen3 solutions have only 8 ports,
and cannot leverage that advantage.
Adaptec Series 7H HBAs deliver up to 1 million IOPS @ 512Byte block size for data
centers requiring maximum I/O connectivity and low latency.

Bandwidth Capability!
8 lane PCIe Gen3 ➔ 8000 MB/s
Adaptec Series 7He HBAs with maxCrypto hardware encryption ensure that sensitive data is
protected by secure 256-bit AES inline encryption enabled with a unique HW encryption key.
12Gb/s 36-port SAS Expander Card
Scalable Storage Solutions for Data Centers
The 12Gb/s Adaptec 82885T SAS Expander Card offers a scalable connectivity / fan-out option for additional drives when used in
conjunction with a SAS RAID adapter or SAS HBA. The 82885T SAS Expander Card offers 36 ports in a low-profile MD2 form factor
with 28 internal ports for connection to a SAS controller and/or SAS or SATA drives and 8 external ports for optional connections to
external JBODs.
Adaptec 82885T
Universal Compatibility with Existing Storage Infrastructure
The Adaptec 82885T SAS Expander Card is fully compatible with Adaptec Series 8, Series 7 and Series 6 RAID adapters and HBAs,
allowing for a seamless integration and management within an end-to-end Adaptec solution. The 82885T is also compatible with 3rd
party RAID adapters and HBAs and has also been tested for interoperability with a wide variety of SAS and SATA HDDs and SSDs.
Storage is in our DNA
Recognized globally as a leader in storage technology and backed
by PMC’s industry-proven semiconductor storage solutions, Adaptec
by PMC RAID adapters, Host Bus Adapters (HBAs) and SAS Expanders
are used in data centers, IT, and general consumer server environments.
