Choosing to equip your HP ProLiant Gen9 server with the HP Smart Array P440ar/2G FIO Controller means investing in a robust storage solution that will significantly enhance system performance. By facilitating 12Gb/s SAS connectivity, the P440ar can handle the increased data transfer demands of modern businesses with ease, ensuring smooth and efficient operations.
Furthermore, the controller comes with 2GB of Flash-Backed Write Cache (FBWC), providing a persistent memory buffer that protects your data in case of power loss, server failures, or other unplanned disruptions. This added layer of protection is critical for maintaining data integrity and avoiding potential loss of valuable information.
Advanced RAID capabilities enable you to configure arrays for redundancy, speed, or a combination of both, depending on your specific needs. The flexibility to migrate RAID levels without downtime is particularly beneficial when upgrading storage performance or capacity without interrupting services.
With the controller’s support for the HP Smart Storage Battery, you reduce the number of backup power sources required, saving on cost and making system upgrades simpler. This feature demonstrates the controller’s design for easy integration and future expansions.
Moreover, managing the P440ar is made effortless with the use of HP Smart Storage Administrator software. The intuitive interface allows for easy configuration and maintenance of storage arrays, reducing the time spent on setup and management.
Lastly, with HP’s reputation for reliability, you can trust the quality and durability of the Smart Array P440ar to support your data storage needs for the long term. By selecting this controller, you are ensuring your server’s storage infrastructure is capable, reliable, and ready for the future.
The HP Smart Array P440ar Controller is a Flexible Smart Array, 12Gb/s SAS RAID controller that provides enterprise-class storage performance, increased internal scalability with SAS Expander Card, and data protection for specific HP ProLiant Gen9 rack and tower servers. It features eight internal physical links and delivers increased server uptime by providing advanced storage functionality, including online RAID level migration between any RAID levels with flash backed write cache (FBWC), global online spare, and pre-failure warning.
The Gen9 family of controllers supports the HP Smart Storage Battery. With HP Smart Storage Battery, multiple Smart Array controllers are supported without needing additional backup power sources for each controller, resulting in simple upgrade process. The HP Smart Array P440ar Controller and the attached storage devices are configured and managed by the easy–to-use HP Smart Storage Administrator software which is included in the intelligent provisioning of the server. Data compatibility between the HP Smart Array Controller family allows simple and easy migration at any time when needs for higher performance, capacity, or availability increase such as converting an existing storage volume to more advanced disk array configuration.
