IBM integrated this host controller for SAS/SATA drives with a ServeRAID controller: the IBM ServeRAID M5210. This storage controller has been built for IBM servers. It can support both SAS and SATA drives which gives it flexibility on storage options. It has a PCI Express port which has high data transfer rates. Enhanced data RAID features are also built into the adapter. This means that data security and performance optimization is also included, making IBM an efficient solution in a server environment.
