resources or capturing DRAM. Also, Express Flash drives use a standardized, 2.5-inch hot-plug form factor, which allows a common management process for all drives. The PowerEdge M620 has an option to support up to two Express Flash PCIe SSD drives with the PCIe SSD backplane configuration. This backplane configuration may be selected at purchase, but may not be upgraded later. Dell provides highly capable RAID options for you to ensure that your data remains safe. Dell's RAID controller options offer impressive performance improvements. The newest line of PowerEdge RAID Controllers (PERCs) offers high I/O performance for a variety of uses, including database applications and streaming digital media environments. The internal RAID controllers have a dedicated connection to the system board. The PERC H710P is an eight-port, internal, 6Gb/s PCIe RAID controller (mini form factor) with 1GB DDR3 non-volatile (NV) cache. The PERC H710 is an eight-port, internal, 6Gb/s PCIe RAID controller (mini form factor) with 512MB DDR3 NV cache. The PERC H310 is an eight-port, internal, 6Gb/s PCIe RAID controller (mini form factor) that is a low-cost, entry-level RAID solution. The PERC S110 is a 3Gb/s SATA software RAID controller that is a low-cost, entry-level RAID solution. For more information about the latest PERC offerings, see Dell.com/PERC.
