About this item 4x M.2 Ports Driverless NVMe RAID Solution UEFI, CLI & WebGUI RAID Configuration & Management Wide Spectrum of Boot OS Support Rebranding MP-Tool WebGUI (available for System Integrators) Windows: Windows 11 and 10, Windows Server 2022/2019/2016/2012 R2, Microsoft Hyper-V; Only supports 64-bit operating system Linux: RHEL/Debian/Ubuntu/Proxmox/Fedora/XenProject (Linux Kernel 3.10 and later); Arch Linux (Kernel 5.17.5 and above); Only supports 64-bit operating system. macOS: macOS 10.13 ~ macOS Monterey 12.x From the manufacturer HighPoint SSD6200 Series Bootable NVMe Host RAID Controllers Driverless, Bootable & Low-Profile Dual-Port M.2 NVMe PCIe 3.0 x8 Host RAID Controller HighPoint SSD6200 Series NVMe RAID Controllers are ideal for applications that require a bootable storage solution with host-level redundant RAID capability and native in-box driver support. SSD6200 Series controllers were designed to maximize uptime of the host platform and ease the integration and maintenance of NVMe RAID Storage. In addition, a wide range of solution packages are available for the professional VAR; customers can opt for either 2 and 4 dedicated M.2 device ports, integrated Host RAID 1, 0 & JBOD support, optional OOB management when outside of the OS platform, LED RAID status & I/O indication, UEFI/BIOS/CLI/GUI management interfaces, and Half-Height or Full-Height form factors. Integrated Host-Level NVMe RAID Technology HighPoint’s SSD6200 series AICs feature integrated Host-Level NVMe RAID 0, 1 and JBOD capability, which operates completely independent of the computing platform and operating system. Hosted RAID arrays are fully transparent and will be automatically recognized by the Virtualization and OS platform as ordinary drives. No drivers, special procedures or software application is required. Intuitive & Streamlined Management Suite A unique version of our WebGUI has been developed to streamline the RAID creation and administration process. The SHI (Storage Health Inspector) enables users to monitor the health of NVMe SSDs via SMART attributes in real-time, such as temperature, TBW (Total Bytes Written), and operational status. Key Features Driverless, Bootable NVMe Host RAID Solution Up to 4x M.2 ports; accept any off-the-shelf M.2 NVMe SSD VMware Ready: Natively supported by VMware ESXi One-click RAID Creation: Integrated Hardware Switch Wide Spectrum of Bootable OS Support Optional CLI & WebGUI RAID Configuration & Management PCIe 3.0 x8 (PCIe 4.0 compatible) Native hardware support ensures seamless OS Installation & Upgrades Unprecedented NVMe Boot Capability SSD6200 Series controllers are natively supported by a wide range of VM and OS platforms, such as VMware, Hyper-V, Proxmox Hypervisor, Windows 11 & Server 2022, RedHat, Debian and FreeBSD. RAID configurations will automatically be recognized as single volumes; no special installation procedures or device drivers are required! Embedded Driver Support The SSD6200 NVMe driver is embedded directly into every kernel release and OS update – this enables VMware, Linux, and Windows platforms to recognize and support these controllers without the need for user intervention. RAID Hardware Switch Optimizes Production Workflows The SSD6202A and SSD6204A feature a Hardware switch for instant RAID configuration. No OS or software application required; administrators can instantly configure RAID 1 mirroring for maximum security, RAID 0 striping for max performance and capacity, or configure the SSDs to operate as independent disks, without having to physically install the controller. One-Click RAID Creation enables Solution Providers and VAR’s to optimize production workflows. The onboard RAID switch completely flattens the learning curve by eliminating the need for an interface or application. You don’t even need an OS or input devices! Simply install the SSD’s, plug in the card, power on the system and toggle the switch! RAID Switch Settings Each controller features two hardware switches which can be used to configure one of 3 arrays modes (Mirroring, Striping and JBOD). Optional BIOS Configuration Server motherboards that can interface with the SSD6200 controller will provide a RAID creation BIOS menu SSD6202A SSD6204A SSD7105 SSD7202 Buying Options Add to Cart Add to Cart Add to Cart Customer Reviews — 5.0 out of 5 stars 3 3.8 out of 5 stars 57 3.8 out of 5 stars 57 Price — $181.35 $181 . 35 $299.00 $299 . 00 $299.00 $299 . 00 Dimensions 6.61″ L x 2.71″ H x 0.67″ D 7.68” L x 4.38” H x 0.73” D 8.27″ L x 5.00″ H x 0.83″ D 6.61″ L x 2.71″ H x 0.67″ D Host Interface PCIe 3.0 x8 PCIe 3.0 x8 PCIe 3.0 x16 PCIe 3.0 x8 Port Count 2-Port M.2 4-Port M.2 4-Port M.2 2-Port M.2 RAID Level Support Host RAID 0, 1, JBOD Host RAID 0, 1, JBOD Host RAID 0, 1, 10, JBOD Host RAID 0, 1, JBOD Bootable RAID Support Yes Yes Yes Yes VMware Support Yes Yes No No Product information Technical Details Collapse all Other Technical Details Brand ‎HighPoint Series ‎SSD6204A Item model number ‎SSD6204A Operating System ‎64-bit,Linux,Microsoft,Windows Item Weight ‎1.3 pounds Package Dimensions ‎13.23 x 7.68 x 2.72 inches Color ‎Green Manufacturer ‎HighPoint Technologies, Inc.
