12.4.2  PERC 6/i  
If you want an internal RAID solution, select the PERC 6/i or PERC H700. The PERC 6/i uses the LSI 
1078 ROC (RAID on Chip) processor with a PCI Express host interface and DDR2 memory. A battery is 
also available for backup. 
12.4.3  PERC H200 
The H200 SAS HBA is an expansion card that plugs into the dedicated internal SAS slot on Riser1. It 
incorporates two four-channel 6 Gb/s SAS IOCs for connection to SAS hard disk drives. It is designed 
in a form factor that allows the same card to be used in other 11G 2U rack-form factor platforms. 
12.4.4  PERC H700  
If you want an internal RAID solution, select the PERC H700 or PERC 6/i. The PERC H700 card has its 
own processor with a PCI Express Gen2 host interface and DDR2 memory and installs into the 
dedicated internal SAS slot on Riser1. A battery is also available for backup. It supports the internal 6 
Gb/s backplane interface for internal storage options (SAS, SATA, or SSD HDD). The PowerEdge R610 
supports both 256MB and 512MB cache options on the internal H700.
