Designed to maximize the uptime and accessibility of RAID storage, the RocketRAID 3740C PCIe Host Bus Adapter from HighPoint fits into a PCIe 3.0 x8 slot on your host Windows, Mac, Linux, or FreeBSD system using an included low-profile bracket. It is equipped with four internal SFF-8643 mini-SAS ports that support up to sixteen SAS-3 12 Gb/s or SATA III 6 Gb/s channels, which may be used for Enterprise and NAS drives. The RocketRAID 3740C also supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, and 50, each of which provides performance, data redundancy, or a combination of both. For those who do not require a RAID, JBOD is available. To better monitor the health of your RAID configuration, HighPoint's RocketRAID WebGUI interface provides a wide range of preemptive monitoring and maintenance features.

It is also possible to expand or convert RAID storage configurations as needed with Online Capacity Expansion (OCE), which allows admins to add new drives to existing arrays. Online RAID Level Migration (ORLM) allows admins to convert one RAID level to another in order to tune storage configurations for improved performance or data security.

Please note that bootable RAID 6 arrays are not supported and RAID 6 is not supported on Mac. This controller may be used with the RS6418S and RS6414S JBOD tower enclosures via 8644-8088-1M1 SFF8644 to SFF-8088 cables.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Will this work with Mellanox Connect-X6 / Connect-X5 cars on Windows?

A: The RocketStor 6661A Thunderbolt 3 to PCIe 3.0 Expansion Chassis is only compatible with macOS/OS X systems.

Q: 2. What size HDD does this card support for RAID 1? I'm looking at using the IronWolf 10TB 7200 RPM NAS HDD.

A: On the datasheet for this product, the manufacture only states it supports larger HDD's than 2TB. It doesn't specify the maximum size. Sorry for any inconvenience. https://bit.ly/2yYp2rn As far as compatible HDD's, the manufacture doesn't list Seagate IronWork HDD as a compatible option. The compatible HDD's are shown below: https://bit.ly/2NblCKd

Q: 3. What's the maximum throughput?

A: Rocket series NVMe HBAs such as this 1508 8-Bay M.2 NVMe SSD PCIe 4.0 x16 Adapter Card are capable of fully saturating x16 lanes of 4.0 host bandwidth.

Q: 4. Does it support any form of RAID ?

A: Yes, the HighPoint Rocket R1204 PCIe 3.0 x8 4-Channel M.2 NVMe Host Controller has support for OS-based RAID configurations.

Q: 5. It will work on mac pro 5.1 pcie16x(2.0)? I believe individual drives (nvme 4.0) will work full, but raid will be negligible because of pcie 2.0. Am i right?

A: Nvme drives will typically be bottlenecked by PCIe 2.0 with or without RAID, and as such only SATA M.2 drives (via a PCIe card similar to this one) would be recommended for use with PCIe 2.0.

Q: 6. What's the difference to HighPoint SSD7540?

A: In addition to RAID 0, the HighPoint SSD7540 can support RAID 1 and RAID 10.

Q: 7. Would I be able to use a StarTech 3-Port 2b 1a 1394 Low Profile PCI Express FireWire Adapter Card with an M1 MacBook using this chassis?

A: Yes that setup would be compatible.

Q: 8. Would this work with the Blackmagic DeckLink Quad HDMI card? https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1464918-REG/blackmagic_desi

A: Yes, The HighPoint RocketStor 6661A Thunderbolt 3 to PCI-E 3.0 x16 Expansion Chassis should support the Black Magic Decklink Quad HDMI PCI-E card. We also suggest working with the following chassis: OWC Mercury Helios 3S Thunderbolt 3 PCIe Expansion Solution BH #OWHELIOS3S https://bhpho.to/3L3N4Hb

Q: 9. Is this compatible with MACOS using M1 or M2 CPU?

A: Yes, the HighPoint RocketRAID 2722A External 8-Channel SAS-2 / SATA III PCIe 2.0 RAID Controller is compatible with MacOS being run on M1 and M2 chip computers.

Q: 10. Will this card run with this SSDs Western Digital WD Green, 2TB, SATA III?

A: Yes, you can connect SATA HDD and SSD's to the HighPoint RocketRAID 2840C PCIe Host Bus Adapter.
