PRODUCT BRIEF  
Intel® Integrated RAID Module RMS2AF080  
Intel® Integrated RAID Module RMS2AF080  
Seamless Entry-Level SAS-2 RAID for Intel® Server Boards and Systems  
Product Overview:  
KEY Advantages:  
The Intel® RMS2AF080, one  
of Intel’s new entry-level  
6Gb/s SAS I/O modules,  
• System design flexibility. 1U capable system board connects to the I/O expansion slot on  
Intel’s rack optimized server boards. This module can be used in Intel and 3rd party chassis  
without the need for a riser card or low profile chassis cutout.  
incorporates LSI’s MegaRAID*  
Entry technology to offer  
exceptional data protection  
and configuration flexibility.  
• Exceptional data protection. Supports data redundancy using SAS or SATA hard disk  
drives through mirroring, parity, and double parity (RAID levels 1 and 5) plus striping  
capability for spans (RAID levels 10 and 50).  
Designed for a wide selection  
of Intel server boards, this  
• Excellent performance without hindering system resources. LSI SAS2008 I/O controller,  
host allows for built-in hardware RAID 0, 1 and 10 ; plus, firmware-based RAID 5 and 50  
(RAID 5 and 50 utilize system resources to a limited extent).  
SAS/SATA RAID module offers features including LSI’s 2008 6Gb/s I/O Controller (IOC)  
and a native PCI Express* 2.0 architecture help to deliver essential performance for 3Gb/s  
and 6Gb/s drive-based solutions. The Intel RMS2AF080 allows businesses using entry-  
level servers and workstations to employ robust RAID functionality at lower prices than  
enterprise-class RAID adapters.  
Enhanced entry-level availability. The Intel RMS2AF080 design utilizes LSI MegaRAID*  
Entry technology which offers simplified configuration options, the same robustness, and  
many of the same features as trusted LSI MegaRAID technology.  
Seamless migration to more fully featured RAID. The Intel RMS2MH080 shares com-  
mon drivers with Intel’s enterprise-class RAID products.  
The Intel® RMS2AF080 communicates with the host system through a custom board-to-  
board PCIe 2.0 interface to allow for minimizing the RAID hardware footprint. With the  
popularity of rack-dense 1U and 2U servers increasing, this design allows system builders to  
easily implement a robust RAID solution without sacrificing a valuable riser-card slot or using  
a chassis with low-profile add-in card cut-outs.  
Why Consider More?  
Install a mainstream RAID controller* for:  
• Superior performance with LSI2108 RAID On Chip Processor  
• 512MB embedded cache with optional battery backup  
• Additional RAID level 6 and span 60  
All Intel RAID solutions are validated across multiple platforms with Intel® boards, chassis, and  
systems. Custom training, as well as Intel® service and support, make Intel the one source for  
customers seeking data protection, increased productivity, and simplified IT.  
• Compatibility with Intel RAID Premium Features
