Frequently Asked Questions

What is FBWC (Flash-Backed Write Cache)?
FBWC uses flash storage to preserve the RAID controller write cache contents during power loss — combining the performance of DRAM write cache with the data persistence of flash, eliminating the need for a battery backup unit (BBU).
What cables connect to the P440?
The HPE Smart Array P440 uses 2x SFF-8643 (Mini-SAS HD) internal connectors — use SFF-8643 to SFF-8482 (SAS drive) or SFF-8643 to SATA breakout cables depending on your drive type.
Is the P440 compatible with HPE ProLiant Gen10?
Yes — the HPE Smart Array P440 is compatible with HPE ProLiant Gen9 and Gen10 servers that support PCIe 3.0 x8 low-profile RAID controllers.

The HPE Smart Array P440 (726821-B21) delivers 8-port SAS 12Gb/s RAID with 4GB FBWC write cache and comprehensive RAID level support — an enterprise-grade HPE RAID controller for ProLiant Gen9 and Gen10 server storage.
