Industrial 3154-24i 12G SAS SATA PCIe RAID Controller

SmartRAID 3154-24i is a 24-port, 12 Gbps SAS/SATA PCIe Gen3 RAID adapter from Microchip’s Adaptec SmartRAID family, designed for dense internal storage in servers and industrial systems. It provides 24 internal SAS/SATA ports via six internal SFF-8643 connectors, in a low-profile MD2 form factor that fits in PCIe Gen3 x8 slots. The controller includes 4 GB DDR4 cache with ASCM-35F cache protection (included) for power-loss protection. Ordering part number 2294700-R. Supported RAID levels include 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, and 60, enabling a range of performance and redundancy configurations for data-intensive workloads such as databases, virtualization, and large-scale storage arrays. This 12 Gbps SAS/SATA adapter is built for enterprise reliability and supports SAS-3 and SATA-3 devices, offering a high-port-density solution for servers and workstations that require compact footprint and scalable expansion. The device operates over PCIe Gen3 with eight lanes, delivering efficient data throughput for multi-drive configurations in modern server platforms.
