SAS Controller Daughter Card

Your system includes a dedicated slot on the sideplane for an internal SAS controller daughter card that provides the SAS storage subsystem for your system's

internal hard drives. The controller supports either all-SAS or all-SATA hard drive configurations and also enables you to set up the hard drives in RAID

configurations as supported by the version of the SAS controller included with your system.
