## Summary description

The Fujitsu PRAID CP500i is a PCI Express x8 RAID controller supporting SAS and SATA drives. It offers RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 10, and 50 with a data transfer rate of 12 Gbit/s, ensuring high performance and reliability for storage solutions.

## Long description

The Fujitsu PRAID CP500i PCI Express x8 12 Gbit/s SAS SATA is a RAID controller designed for server and workstation storage systems that require hardware RAID management for mixed SAS and SATA drive environments. The controller supports multiple RAID levels — 0, 1, 5, 10 and 50 — and provides a 12 Gbit/s per-port transfer capability over SAS interfaces while connecting to the host via a PCI Express x8 slot.
Advantages
This RAID controller consolidates management of SAS and SATA disks into a single hardware module, reducing CPU overhead by offloading RAID calculations and streamlining storage administration. The supported RAID levels enable flexible trade-offs between capacity, redundancy and performance. With a PCI Express x8 host interface and 12 Gbit/s link speeds, the controller supports high-throughput storage operations and is suitable for I/O-intensive environments. The design follows standard server form factors for straightforward installation and integration.
Suitable for
 Enterprise servers requiring hardware RAID for mixed SAS/SATA drive arrays
 Storage arrays and backup servers where RAID 5/10/50 redundancy is needed
 Workstations or compute nodes that need accelerated disk I/O without additional CPU load
 Database and virtualization hosts with high sequential and random I/O demands
Key specifications
 Host interface: PCI Express x8
 Supported drive interfaces: SAS and SATA
 Supported RAID levels: 0, 1, 5, 10, 50
 Per-port transfer rate: 12 Gbit/s (SAS)
 Form factor: low-profile / standard server PCIe card (industry standard)
How to use
Install the controller into an available PCI Express x8 slot following server manufacturer guidelines and ensure the server is powered down before insertion. Connect SAS or SATA drive backplanes or individual drives using compatible cabling and ensure proper lane negotiation for 12 Gbit/s operation if supported by the connected devices. Configure RAID arrays through the controller's firmware/BIOS utility during boot or via vendor-supplied management software once the operating system is running. Initialize and verify the array health before placing production data on the logical volumes.
Usage recommendations
Use enterprise-grade SAS or SATA drives and maintain regular firmware updates for both the controller and connected devices. Monitor array health and performance using the vendor management tools, schedule periodic integrity checks, and implement a backup strategy to protect against multiple-drive failures that exceed the chosen RAID level’s redundancy.
