Description

The HPE SR3258p-32i/e is a high-performance Tri-Mode RAID Controller designed for HPE Compute Scale-up Server 3200 and Superdome Flex 280 platforms. With 32 ports running at 24Gb/s SAS and a PCIe Gen 4 x16 host interface, it delivers exceptional storage throughput for demanding enterprise workloads. Its Tri-Mode architecture supports NVMe, SAS, and SATA drives simultaneously, while 8GB of onboard cache and hardware-level encryption (SED support) make it ideal for performance-critical and security-conscious deployments.

The controller provides RAID 0, 1, 5, and 10 redundancy options, with supercap-backed write cache protection via a tethered supercap unit (requires a second PCIe slot). Whether consolidating large mixed-drive storage pools or accelerating I/O-intensive applications, the SR3258p-32i/e delivers enterprise-grade reliability and flexibility within HPE's scale-up server ecosystem.

FAQs

Q: What platforms is the HPE SR3258p-32i/e RAID controller compatible with?
A: The HPE SR3258p-32i/e is designed specifically for HPE Compute Scale-up Server 3200 and HPE Superdome Flex 280 platforms. Always verify compatibility with your specific server model and firmware version before purchasing.

Q: What drive types does the SR3258p support?
A: The SR3258p features Tri-Mode connectivity, supporting NVMe, SAS, and SATA drives simultaneously. This allows flexible storage configurations across a mixed-drive environment on a single controller.

Q: Does the SR3258p include hardware encryption?
A: Yes. The SR3258p-32i/e provides hardware-level encryption with support for Self-Encrypting Drives (SEDs), enabling data-at-rest security without the performance overhead of software-based encryption.

Q: Does the controller require any additional components to operate?
A: Yes. The SR3258p uses a tethered supercap unit for write cache protection, which must be installed in a second PCIe slot. Ensure your server chassis has the required slot availability before deployment.

Q: What RAID levels does the HPE SR3258p-32i/e support?
A: The controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, and 10, covering a range of redundancy and performance configurations suitable for enterprise storage workloads.
