Areca ARC-1883-LP 12Gb SAS | SATA III RAID Controller Card PCIe V.3 with SFF08644 and SFF8643
The new third-generation ARC-1883X offers advanced technology for increased performance and improved enterprise data protection. They were designed with 1.2 GHz dual-core ROC processor, DDR3-1866 memory architecture and PCIe 3.0 interface for the most performance-hungry database, and IT applications.
The ARC-1883X includes 2 ports low profile as well as full height dual ports with SFF-8644 connectors for 12Gb/s throughput on each port. System Integrators and users can put the ARC-1883X in a 2U rackmount chassis without the use of a riser card.
