Intel RAID Controller SRCZCRX Characteristics
The SRCZCRX controller ensures data integrity by intelligently validating the compatibility
of the SCSI domain. The storage adapter uses Fusion-MPT architecture that allows for
thinner drivers and better performance.
Table 3-2 shows the general characteristics for the SRCZCRX controller.
