Product Overview
The MegaRAID SAS 9267-8i RAID controller is a PCI-Express® 3.0, low-profile RAID controller that offers a 6-Gb/s
transfer rate. The controller uses 1GB of DDR3 1333MHz memory (64-bit data and 8-bit ECC) or an optional 512MB of
DDR3 1333MHz memory (32-bit data and 8-bit ECC). In addition, it controls eight internal SAS/SATA ports through two
SFF-8087 mini-SAS 4i internal connectors.
The MegaRAID SAS 9267-8i RAID controller connects to a remote LSI intelligent Battery Backup Unit 09 (LSIiBBU09).
The LSIiBBU09 unit protects the integrity of the cached data on the RAID controller for up to 48 hours (depending on
the derated retention time selected) in case of a complete AC power failure or a brief power outage. For more
information about the LSIiBBU09 unit, refer to the
MegaRAID LSIiBBU09 Intelligent Battery Backup Unit Quick Installation
