Product details

The Adaptec SmartRAID 3258-16i/e RAID adapter offers maximum performance with SAS/SATA/NVMe tri-mode functionality for server OEM, storage systems, data centers, and enterprise customers compared to previous generations.

Built on Microchip's proven 5th generation SmartROC 3200 storage controller, the SmartRAID 3258-16i/e supports an x8 PCIe Gen 4 host interface with 16 media-facing port variants for internal tri-mode connectivity. New technologies available with the SmartRAID 3200 family include DirectPath, which integrates a PCIe switch for the industry's lowest latency and highest bandwidth NVMe solution, and Microchip's Dynamic Channel Multiplexing (DCM) technology that aggregates expander-attached SAS or SATA hard drives onto 24G SAS infrastructure with near 100% link efficiency for unparalleled throughput. Native HBA modes for all media types are also supported, offering the lowest latency for memory-based PCIe storage.

SmartRAID 3200 adapters include Microchip’s Trusted Platform support, delivering a new level of compute and supply chain security based on a hardware root of trust aligned with the Open Compute Security Project. For additional layers of security, Microchip has expanded its unique Adaptec maxCrypto Controller-Based Encryption (CBE) solution to support SAS, SATA, and now NVMe media, as well as Self-Encrypting Drive (SED) management software.

The SmartRAID 3200 RAID adapters also support both Intel Virtual Pin Port (VPP) for intelligent backplane management and SFF's Universal Backplane Management (UBM) standards to simplify integration and enhance product flexibility for system integrators. Additionally, they support industry-leading storage management, including standards-based Platform Level Data Model (PLDM)/Redfish Device Enablement (RDE) to simplify integration, and Microchip's ChipLink Diagnostic Tool with signal integrity analysis and context-sensitive documentation to accelerate time to market.
