## 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, and more. With a data transfer rate of 12 Gbit/s and 2048 MB internal memory, it ensures high performance and reliability for enterprise storage solutions.

## Long description

HPE Smart Array P408i-p SR Gen10 Controller is an enterprise-class internal RAID controller that delivers 12 Gb/s SAS connectivity and PCIe 3.0 support to increase storage performance and capacity in HPE ProLiant Gen10 servers. The controller provides eight internal SAS lanes compatible with SAS and SATA drives, supports Mixed Mode operation (RAID and HBA simultaneously), and includes data-at-rest encryption support. It features 2 GB Flash-Backed Write Cache (FBWC) to improve write performance and data reliability. The controller occupies a PCIe expansion slot and is supported by the HPE Smart Storage Battery (sold separately).
Advantages
The controller improves performance for messaging, databases and general server workloads by providing 12 Gb/s SAS connectivity and a 2 GB FBWC that reduces latency in write-intensive applications. It supports HPE SSD Smart Path to optimize I/O between controller and SSDs and can accelerate HDD environments by caching hot data to SSDs with SR SmartCache (optional license). Built-in features include secure encryption for data-at-rest (optional SR Secure Encryption license), wear monitoring via HPE SmartSSD Wear Gauge, and Mixed Mode flexibility to run RAID and HBA concurrently, avoiding the need for an additional controller.
Key specifications
Interface: PCIe 3.0
SAS speed: 12 Gb/s
Internal lanes: 8 SAS lanes (supports SAS and SATA drives)
Cache: 2 GB Flash-Backed Write Cache (FBWC)
Mixed Mode: RAID and HBA simultaneously
Encryption: Data-at-rest encryption support (optional license)

How to use
Install the controller into an available PCIe expansion slot on a compatible HPE ProLiant Gen10 server and connect the internal SAS/SATA drives to the controller’s eight internal lanes. Use the UEFI storage configuration tool or HPE Smart Storage Administrator (SSA) to create and configure RAID volumes, set cache policies, and enable optional features such as SR SmartCache or SR Secure Encryption if licensed. For scripted or remote configuration, use iLO with the RESTful interface. Ensure an HPE Smart Storage Battery is installed if required for cache protection and longer-term data retention.
Recommendations
For optimal performance, pair the controller with 12 Gb/s internal drives and consider the HPE Smart Storage Battery for cache protection. Enable HPE SSD Smart Path for SSD-heavy environments and evaluate SR Secure Encryption and SR SmartCache licenses according to your security and performance needs.
