HighPoint Manufactures the industry Most Comprehensive 8-Port Count NVMe RAID & HBA Controller Family
HighPoint manufacturers high-port count HBA solutions for every application and platform. All PCIe Generations (PCIe 3.0 and 4.0) and NVMe form-factors are supported (M.2, E1.S, U.2/U.3), a variety of connectivity configuration are available (internal, external and hybrid), and two distinct product lines (RAID HBAs and connectivity HBAs) have been released.
HighPoint’s 8-Channel NVMe HBAs utilize the state-of-the-art PCIe switch technology to maximize transfer performance for each device port. Our Gen4 controllers features a 48-lane PCIe 4.0 switch chipset that ensures a dedicated x16 lanes of upstream bandwidth are available at all times. And importantly a dedicated x4 lanes are allocated to each NVMe channel. This combination ensures that the full 28GB/s of real-world transfer bandwidth is always on tap.
HighPoint currently manufactures three PCIe Gen4 NVMe RAID HBAs capable of directly hosting up to 8 NVMe SSDs. However, each model was designed for a specific class of NVMe media and target application.
