Smart Storage and Connectivity
Today’s data centers and enterprises need storage solutions that can keep pace with
their rapid data expansion. The HBA 1100 is a product in the Smart Storage solutions
family, forged through the convergence of SAS/SATA protocol controller expertise, more
than 30 years of board innovation, and the new Smart Storage stack. The HBA 1100
Series, available in ve dierent congurations with up to 24 internal SAS/SATA ports,
oers a large number of density options in a low-prole, MD2 form factor. It delivers the
smart connectivity that businesses are looking for, with high resiliency, low power and the
performance required to unlock the capabilities of Flash media.

HBA 1100 Series:
1100-24i/16i/16e/8i8e/8i/8e/4i
12 Gbps PCIe Gen3 SAS/SATA Host Bus Adapter
Resiliency and Eciency
The HBA 1100 delivers enterprise resiliency with its broadly
deployed Smart Storage stack. Based on the PM8222
8x12G SmartIOC 2100 SAS/SATA protocol controller, the
HBA 1100 Series provides a robust and stable solution that
can handle the toughest system workloads and congurations.
It oers over 40 percent power savings compared to previous
generations, and signicant power advantages versus compet-
ing solutions. It is fully tools-compatible with existing and future
HBA, RAID and expander solutions.
Optimized for New Devices and
New Use Cases
The HBA 1100 supports SMR HDDs and their specic com-
mand sets (ZAC/ZBC for SAS/SATA SMR drives), enabling
cost-ecient solutions for warm and cold storage applications.
It also supports the latest SAS and SATA SSDs. The HBA 1100
is also optimized for software-dened storage solutions, such
as Microsoft
®
Storage Spaces Direct, VMWare vSAN and
OpenStack Swift/Ceph.
Maximum Performance
The HBA 1100 Series provides the highest levels of storage
performance and scalability for next-generation data centers.
Using the new SmartPQI host OS device drivers that are
optimized for low-latency solid-state drives, HBA 1100 adapt-
ers can aggregate the performance of devices to the limits of
the PCIe Gen3 host bus at 6.6 Gbps, and achieve up to 1.7M
IOPS and 60 percent higher IOPS performance with SATA
devices without additional overhead or latency.

The HBA1100-
24i, with 24 internal ports, delivers the lowest latency and
highest performance when connected to SSDs, with no need
for expanders in most rack server applications.
Ease of Use
The HBA 1100, with its broad operating system support and
ecosystem compatibility, is easy to implement and scale,
connecting up to 24 storage devices. The unied maxView
management tools and drivers across the HBA, RAID and
expander solutions enable easy manageability across the entire
product line.

16- and 24-port adapters can achieve 1.7M random read IOPS for 4 KB I/Os. Adapt-
ers with 8 ports and fewer are capable of 1.5M IOPS.
Benets
• A 4- to 24-port HBA family, ideal for server solutions
supporting SAS/SATA HDDs, tape devices and SSDs
that require maximum connectivity, bandwidth and I/O
performance
• Performance of up to 1.7M IOPS, low latency and low CPU
utilization fully saturating the x8 PCIe Gen3 host bus
• Inbox drivers and broad operating system support and
device and platform capability provides a single solution for
servers, and all device connectivity needs
