## Summary description

The HPE SmartArray P408i-p SR Gen10 RAID controller features PCI Express x8 interface, supports SAS and SATA drives, and offers RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, with a data transfer rate of 12 Gbit/s and 2048 MB internal memory.

## Long description

The HPE Smart Array P408i-p SR Gen10 Controller is an enterprise RAID controller for HPE ProLiant Gen10 servers that provides 12 Gb/s SAS and PCIe 3.0 connectivity. It offers eight internal SAS lanes for SAS or SATA drives, supports Mixed Mode operation (RAID and HBA simultaneously), and includes 2 GB Flash-Backed Write Cache (FBWC) to improve write performance and data reliability. The controller supports data-at-rest encryption for attached drives and occupies a PCIe expansion slot. HPE Smart Storage Battery is available separately.
Advantages
The controller increases storage throughput and lowers latency in write-intensive workloads by combining 12 Gb/s SAS connectivity with 2 GB FBWC. It supports HPE SSD Smart Path to optimize I/O between controller and SSDs and can accelerate HDD environments by caching frequently accessed data on SSDs when the optional SmartCache license is enabled. Mixed Mode provides deployment flexibility by allowing RAID and HBA to operate concurrently, reducing the need for additional adapters. Management is available through the UEFI storage configuration tool, HPE Smart Storage Administrator (SSA), and iLO RESTful interfaces.
Key specifications
Interface: 12 Gb/s SAS, PCIe 3.0
Internal lanes: 8 SAS lanes
Drive support: SAS and SATA drives
Mode: Mixed Mode (RAID + HBA)
Cache: 2 GB Flash-Backed Write Cache (FBWC)
Encryption: Data-at-rest encryption supported (optional license)
Compatibility: HPE ProLiant Gen10 servers
Management: HPE Smart Storage Administrator (SSA), UEFI storage configuration, iLO RESTful interface
Expansion: Occupies a PCIe expansion slot
How to use
Install the controller into an available PCIe expansion slot on a supported HPE ProLiant Gen10 server and connect SAS or SATA drives to the internal SAS lanes. During server boot, use the UEFI storage configuration tool or launch HPE Smart Storage Administrator (SSA) to create RAID volumes and configure controller options. For mixed deployments, enable Mixed Mode to run RAID and HBA concurrently. If using encryption or SmartCache, obtain and enable the corresponding optional licenses and configure them through SSA or the iLO RESTful API. For cache protection in power-loss scenarios, install the HPE Smart Storage Battery (sold separately) following HPE installation guidelines.
Recommendations
Keep controller firmware and HPE management tools up to date to maintain compatibility and security. Consider adding the HPE Smart Storage Battery for cache protection and purchasing optional Secure Encryption or SmartCache licenses if your workload requires encryption or SSD caching.
