IBM Redbooks Product Guide

The ServeRAID M5115 SAS/SATA Controller is a high-performance offering for IBM Flex System™

compute nodes. It enables a high-performance RAID solution composed of combinations of SAS or SATA

drives or high-throughput solid-state drives (SSDs). The offering is designed around a base RAID adapter

with a set of upgrades that are rich with features, designed to minimize parts-on-the-floor, optimized for

storage performance, and consistent with existing industry-leading ServeRAID products.

The ServeRAID M5115 SAS/SATA Controller for IBM Flex System is capable of delivering several

focused solutions depending on business needs, offering two-drive HDD connectivity or support for up to

eight 1.8-inch SSDs or combinations of HDDs and SSDs. Software upgrades include SSD performance

features or an extra layer of redundancy with RAID 6. These solutions are realized by pairing M5115 with

one or more available hardware kits and Feature-on-Demand license upgrades.

The following figure shows a design drawing of the ServeRAID M5115 controller.

Did you know?

The ServeRAID M5115 SAS/SATA controller is optimized for high-performance, internal data storage that

integrates a dual-core chip architecture, DDR3 1333 MHz cache memory, and PCIe 3.0 host interface.

Upgrade features, such as support for RAID 6/60, performance optimization, and caching with SSDs, no

longer require a hardware key, as they are implemented through Features-on-Demand (FoD) software

licenses.
