RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks)
For optimal performance when configuring drives as a RAID volume, Dell Technologies recommends drive models that are identical.
The Dell Technologies PowerEdge RAID Controller (PERC) H755 is a RAID disk array controller made by Dell for the Precision 7960 Rack. It has the following characteristics:
- Provides reliability, high performance, and fault-tolerant disk subsystem management.
- Offers RAID control capabilities including support for RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 10.
- Complies with Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) 3.0 providing up to 12 Gb/sec throughput.
- Supports Dell-qualified Serial Attached SCSI (SAS), SATA hard drives, and solid state drives (SSDs).
The Precision 7960 Rack system supports Intel VROC RAID Controller. It has the following characteristics:
- NVMe drives can be directly connected to the CPU PCIe slots using the Dell Ultra-Speed Quad or Dell Ultra- Speed Duo add-in cards.
- Intel VMD is the storage controller used by drives directly attached to the CPU.
- Intel VROC is the software stack that manages drives attached to Intel VMD.
- The integrated Intel VROC pass-through allows for NVMe SSDs to be installed onto CPU PCIe connections in JBOD mode only. The Intel VROC Standard upgrade allows drives connected to Intel VMD to be configured into RAID 0, RAID1, or RAID10 arrays, The Intel VROC Premium upgrade allows drives connected to Intel VMD to be configured into RAID 0, RAID1, RAID10 and RAID5 arrays.
- Boot is supported for RAID arrays attached to Intel® VMD controllers this generation. RAID arrays can be spanned across Intel® VMD controllers, but boot is not supported on those arrays. It is not recommended to span RAID arrays across the Intel® VMD controllers on different CPUs.
- Intel VROC will provide support for Disk Coercion. When a RAID volume is created, this feature will analyze the physical disks and will automatically adjust (round down) the capacity of the disks to 95% of the smallest physical disk. This allows for the variances in the physical disk capacities from different vendors. The VROC UI (either Windows VROC Application GUI or CLI tool for manufacturing) will provide an option to manually override this to be able to use all available disk space.
