The IBM SAS 6GB/s Quad Port Host Interface Card (Part No. 00MJ093) is a PCIe-based HBA designed for enterprise storage connectivity in IBM x86 and Power Systems servers. It features four independent SAS ports operating at 6Gb/s throughput per port, supporting both SAS and SATA drives for mixed workload environments. The card is compatible with IBM System x3650, x3750, and related server generations, as well as select Power Systems models. Typical deployments include high-capacity JBOD arrays, direct-attached SAS storage expansion, and multi-drive RAID configurations requiring direct SAS connectivity beyond onboard controllers.
The quad-port design enables 24GB/s aggregate bandwidth and supports daisy-chaining of SAS enclosures for scalable storage topology. Compatible with 2.5" and 3.5" SAS and SATA HDDs and SSDs rated for enterprise duty cycles. Installation requires available PCIe slot and proper firmware initialization within the host system BIOS.
