RAID-on-Chip Storage Controllers
Now in their fifth generation, our SmartROC storage controllers offer the industry’s most reliable, secure and high-performance solutions with industry-based management tools to enable unified management across your server and storage infrastructure.
SmartROC 3200 PCIe® Gen 4 NVMe®/24G SAS/SATA Tri-Mode RAID-on-Chip Controllers
The SmartROC 3200 family is the industry's most versatile, fully featured and secure full RAID-enabled NVMe/SAS/SATA server storage performance solution. It features a fully integrated PCIe Gen 4 switch capable of ×1 bifurcation, SAS-4 connectivity with Dynamic Channel Multiplexing (DCM), and NVMe capabilities for the next generation of enterprise and cloud data centers. The SmartROC 3200 family introduces built-in hardware root-of-trust, providing the solid foundation needed for safeguarding information. Its trusted platform support includes firmware signing with secure boot and secure update features to ensure firmware integrity and authenticity in the end-to-end value chain.
SmartROC 3200 Features
- Up to ×16 PCIe Gen 4 to the host
- Automatic NVMe Gen 4, SAS-4, and SATA detection and link speed negotiation
- Support for Universal Backplane Management (UBM)
- Integrated Switchtec™ PCIe Gen 2 (5 GT/s), Gen 3 (8 GT/s), and Gen 4 (16 GT/s) switch support
- Low latency to NVMe targets in native or RAID modes
- Up to 32 lanes media support, down to ×1 bifurcation for NVMe
- Dynamic Channel Multiplexing (DCM) for nearly 100% efficient bandwidth aggregation for all SAS/SATA drive rates over SAS-4 links
- Secure Key Encryption Key (KEK) management
- Hardware root-of-trust secure boot and secure update
SmartROC 3100 12 Gbps PCIe Gen 3 SAS/SATA RAID-on-Chip Controllers
