cacheless RAID 5 with a Features-on-Demand license upgrade. The M1115 is a part of the ServeRAID M

Series family that offers a complete server storage solution consisting of RAID controllers, cache/flash

Did you know?

The ServeRAID M1115 SAS/SATA Controller is an entry-level internal data storage solution that provides

hardware RAID capabilities and advanced features, such as online capacity expansion and RAID-level

migration. The optional RAID 5 upgrade and support for self-encrypting drives no longer require a hardware

key, because the upgrade functionality is implemented through Features-on-Demand (FoD) software

licenses. With increased demand for performance and advanced features, the M1115 provides a seamless

migration path to the full-featured RAID controllers, such as the ServeRAID M5110. The information about

existing arrays can be recognized and imported into the new controller without requiring any

reconfiguration.

Patrol read for media scanning and repairing Patrol read is a background sentry service designed to proactively discover and correct media defects (bad sectors) that arise normally as a disk drive ages. The service issues a series of verify commands, and if a bad block is discovered, the card's firmware uses RAID algorithms to recreate the missing data and remap the sector to a good sector. The task is interruptible based on controller activity and host operations.
