Your DE6400 or DE6600 has run out of native SAS lanes and you're staring at a shelf of drives that can't talk to the server. This HIC adds four 12Gb SAS ports right into the chassis, so those drives go live without a second controller or an external expander eating rack space. Seat it, connect the backplane cable, and your storage array's back to full capacity. No re-architecting the whole build
