HighPoints SSD7540 8-Port PCIe 4.0 x16 NVMe RAID AIC delivers unbeatable performance and storage capacity in a compact PCIe device. The single-width, full-height AIC can directly host up to 8 off the shelf M. 2 drives of any capacity, and can be easily installed into any PCIe 4.0 capable platform with a free PCIe x16 slot.
The performance-focused NVMe hardware architecture allocates up to x4 lanes of dedicated PCIe 4.0 transfer bandwidth to each M. 2 port for maximum throughput; this enables the SSD7540 to support up to 64TB of storage at speeds up to 28, 000MB/s. Dual-Card Cross-Sync configurations can double performance and capacity thresholds: up to 128TB at an astonishing 55, 000MB/s!
Advanced NVMe RAID Engine
The SSD7540 advanced NVMe RAID engine is capable of supporting RAID 0, 1, 10, arrays and single-drives, including mixed configurations of single-disks and arrays, and multiple arrays.
RAID 0 (Striping) - Also known as a stripe array, this mode delivers Maximum Performance and capacity by linking multiple NVMe SSD's together to act as a single storage unit.
RAID 1 (Mirroring) - This mode creates a hidden duplicate of the target SSD, and is ideal for applications that require an extra layer of data security.
RAID 10 (Security & Speed) - RAID 10 offers the best of both worlds. Two RAID 1 arrays are striped together to maximize performance. RAID 10 is capable of delivering read performance on par with RAID 0.

Comprehensive Storage Management & Monitoring Suite
HighPoints unique performance-focused NVMe architecture utilizes intelligent switch technology to allocate up to x4 lanes of bandwidth to each NVMe device port. This enables our 8-port controllers to fully saturate x16 lanes of host bandwidth using as little as four NVMe SSDs.
However, additional SSDs can be added to maximize storage capacity, or fine tune the configuration for a specific application by optimizing a RAID array for sequential or random I/O.
HighPoints revolutionary Cross-Sync NVMe RAID technology allows administrators to combine two independent controller cards to function as a single device; effectively doubling your transfer bandwidth and storage capability!
The process is seamless and entirely transparent to the host system. The Windows or Linux OS will recognize the dual 8-port AICs as a single 16-Port NVMe device. A dual-card Cross-Synced SSD7540 configuration can host up to 128TB of storage and deliver up to 55, 000 MB/s of transfer performance!
Ultra-Efficient, Low-Noise Hyper-Cooling Solution
The SSD7540s Low-Noise Hyper-Cooling solution ensures SSDs consistently operate within recommended temperature thresholds, even under sustained heavy I/O, by combining a full-length anodized aluminum heat sink with an ultra-durable, near-silent fan, and high-conductivity thermal pad. This innovative, ultra-efficient cooling system rapidly transfers heat away from critical NVMe and controller componentry, without introducing unwanted distraction into your work environment.
Full Fan Control By default, the SSD7540s cooling system will automatically adjust fan speed to ensure NVMe media operates within their recommended temperature thresholds. The WebGUI management suite provides 3 selectable speed settings, including an option to fully disable the fan, providing full fan control. This feature is ideal for media and design applications that require low-noise or silent working environments, and utilize platforms already equipped with robust cooling systems.
