Chapter 3: ServeRAID M1215 SAS/SATA Controller Characteristics
Characteristics of the ServeRAID M1215 SAS/SATA Controller
3.2.5
Operating and Non-operating Conditions
The operating (thermal and atmospheric) conditions for the ServeRAID M1215 SAS/SATA controller are:
Relative humidity range is 5 percent to 90 percent noncondensing
Airflow must be at least 200 linear feet per minute (LFPM) to avoid operating the Intel IOP333 processor above the
maximum ambient temperature
Temperature range: 0 °C to +55 °C
The parameters for the non-operating (such as storage and transit) environment for the controller are:
Relative humidity range is 5 percent to 90 percent noncondensing
Temperature range: -45 °C to +105 °C
3.2.6
Safety Characteristics
The ServeRAID M1215 SAS/SATA controller meets or exceeds the requirements of UL flammability rating 94 V0. Each
bare board is also marked with the supplier name or trademark, type, and UL flammability rating. The board is
installed in a PCI Express bus slot, so all voltages are lower than the SELV 42.4 V limit.
