Adaptec Series 6E SAS/SATA RAID adapters deliver the robustness of hardware RAID and the Adaptec RAID Code, enterprise class management features, and full OS support, including open source drivers – into the entry-level RAID space. The Series 6E are optimized for platforms where a Series 6 adapter would not fit in from a price, form factor or host connectivity standpoint.

Series 6E adapters support SAS and SATA devices, and have been qualified with the same systems, motherboards, backplanes and drives as Series 6 adapters. They include the same drivers, BIOS and storage management tools as Series 6 adapters and do not require additional training or qualification. Series 6E adapters have also been thoroughly tested with entry-level storage devices for desktop use and the entry-level server platforms, workstations and motherboards most typically used for basic servers, performance workstations or industrial PCs.
