About the Broadcom SAS 9600-24i HBA Storage Controller
The Broadcom SAS 9600-24i HBA Storage Controller (part number SAS9600-24I) is a high-performance host bus adapter featuring 24 internal SAS ports delivered through four SFF-8654 8i SlimSAS connectors, operating at SAS-4 speeds of 24 Gb/s per port. This Broadcom controller connects to host systems via a single PCIe 4.0 x8 interface and operates in HBA IT/Initiator Target Mode, delivering pass-through connectivity without onboard RAID functionality, making it ideal for storage architects and IT procurement teams requiring direct device management and maximum flexibility.
Built on Broadcom's proven SAS 9600 series architecture, the SAS9600-24I supports tri-mode connectivity across SAS, SATA, and NVMe devices, enabling unified management of mixed storage environments. With 4 GB of onboard DDR4 memory and support for up to 1,024 end devices when deployed with expanders, this low-profile MD2 form-factor adapter scales to enterprise workloads while maintaining compatibility with Windows Server, Linux major distributions, and VMware vSphere. The controller ships with both low-profile and full-height brackets, accommodates a slimline PCIe power connector, and operates across a 0°C to 55°C temperature range, ensuring reliable performance in data center conditions.
Enterprise Storage Deployment Scenarios
- High-capacity SAN fabric extension with support for up to 1,024 devices via external expanders in tiered storage architectures
- Hypervisor host integration for VMware vSphere environments requiring native SAS, SATA, and NVMe device connectivity without RAID overhead
- Linux-based storage appliances and NAS systems demanding maximum per-port throughput at 24 Gb/s
- Mixed-media storage environments combining legacy SATA, modern SAS, and emerging NVMe technologies on a single controller
- High-availability cluster nodes in Windows Server deployments where direct device pass-through and multi-initiator access are critical
