HPE 698533-B21 – Smart Array P830/4GB FBWC RAID Controller
Overview
The HPE 698533-B21 is a Smart Array P830 enterprise RAID controller designed for HPE ProLiant server platforms. It provides high-performance SAS-based storage management with hardware RAID capabilities for enterprise workloads requiring reliability and data protection.
It supports 12Gb/s SAS connectivity and is built to handle large-scale storage environments with multiple drives. The controller uses Flash-Backed Write Cache (FBWC) to protect cached data during power loss events.
This unit is installed in rack-mounted HPE ProLiant servers and is used in enterprise data centers where high-throughput storage performance and redundancy are required.
It integrates with HPE server management and storage ecosystems to support advanced RAID configurations and scalable storage architectures.
Typical Deployment Scenarios
Used in enterprise ProLiant servers running RAID-based storage systems for virtualization, database hosting, and high-performance file storage. Common in data centers where fault-tolerant and high-speed SAS storage is required. Also deployed in enterprise workloads requiring multiple RAID levels and cache-protected write operations.
