An eight-port, 6Gb/s PCI Express RAID controller, the Dell PowerEdge RAID Controller (PERC) H710 provides high server RAID performance for database and multimedia applications.
Advanced software options
The Dell family of 6Gb/s PowerEdge RAID Controllers is designed to support advanced software options for the Dell PowerEdge server family with enhanced performance and data protection capabilities. These new software options can help you to address key business challenges while helping to deliver a higher return on your IT investments. The PERCs and Dell’s Cut Through I/O (CTIO) feature boost transactional I/O performance of both rotational hard-drive and SSD configurations.
Enterprise data protection
Standard support for the most popular RAID levels and accessories, including RAID 5, RAID 6, RAID 50, RAID 60, and NVCache, further strengthen the data-protection capabilities of the
PERC H710. Dell’s NVCache technology backs up the data to non-volatile storage in a power loss event and can store it safely for a nearly unlimited period of time.
The intuitive RAID management utility
Dell OpenManage™ Storage Services (OMSS) provides the essential tools to efficiently manage PERC products, whether deployed in an enterprise or small business. Dell offers a
collection of applications and tools, including a pre-boot setup utility and a full spectrum of online RAID management utilities. This suite of applications allow administrators to adjust
SAS or SATA topology views from the system host, controller, and disk enclosure down to the logical and physical drive level. Extending to enterprise deployments, these tools can scale to
easily configure, monitor, and manage RAID and JBOD volumes locally or over the LAN network.
