Product Matrix with new RAID for Intel Xeon E5-2600 v3
INTEL® RAID
Intel® RAID Premium Features
These features are available as an upgrade for all LSI* SAS2108 processor-based Intel® RAID products. To identify products with this processor, please refer
to the Processor row of the preceding feature tables. The Premium Feature Keys are described below.
PREMIUM FEATURE DRIVE ENCRYPTION MANAGEMENT RAPID RECOVERY SNAPSHOT
Key Benefits • SSD Cache allows Solid-State Drives (SSD) to be utilized
as additional cache for the RAID controller. The cache
can be used for both reads and writes to assist storage
performance.
• Fast-Path I/O accelerates communication with SSDs
providing up to 150,000 I/O reads per second for
small, random block-size I/O activity. This is a dramatic
increase over solutions not using Fast-Path.
• Drive encryption management enables authentication
key management, auto-lock, and instant erase of self-
encrypting drives (SED).
• All drives eventually leave the data center and the use of
SEDs helps reduce risk of data breaches.
• Instant-erase significantly reduces the cost and time of
repurposing or retiring drives.
• Rapid Recovery Snapshot allows users to capture source
volume data changes and either restore files or rollback
applications to a previous Point in Time (PiT).
• Rapid recovery of lost data from disk can occur within
minutes, minimizing the downtime experienced by users,
and eliminating the lengthy process of restoring data
from tape.
• By isolating a server’s boot volume to a separate virtual
drive and enabling the auto snapshot feature, users can
gain confidence knowing that bootable snapshots exist,
should operating system corruption occur.

PREMIUM FEATURE DRIVE ENCRYPTION MANAGEMENT RAPID RECOVERY SNAPSHOT
Key Benefits • SSD Cache allows Solid-State Drives (SSD) to be utilized
as additional cache for the RAID controller. Frequently
accessed information is stored in the cache, allowing
rapid access.
• Fast-Path I/O accelerates communication with SSDs
providing up to 465,000 I/O reads per second for
small, random block-size I/O activity. This is a dramatic
increase over solutions not using Fast-Path.
