Your cart is empty.Introducing the SSD7105 – The Ultimate Gen3 NVMe Booting Solution Powered by our next generation NVMe hardware architecture, industry-proven RAID stack, and comprehensive boot capability, the SSD7105 delivers unbeatable performance and versatility, all packaged in a compact device no larger than your average video adapter. The SSD7105 is a direct replacement for the SSD7103 and was designed for easy integration into any Intel or AMD based desktop, server or workstation PC with a free, dedicated PCIe 3.0/4.0 x16 slot, and can deliver up to 14,000MB/s of transfer performance and support up to 4 individual boot volumes, in single-drive or RAID modes. Comprehensive OS Support Comprehensive device driver support is available for Windows 11 and 10, Server 2022 and 2019, and Linux Distributions such as RHEL, Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora, Proxmox and Xenserver. In addition, we offer Binary driver development services, and Open-Source driver packages for other or non-standard distributions. Advanced Bootable NVMe RAID Technology The SSD7105 NVME RAID controller can be used to configure bootable RAID or single NVMe SSD configurations for Windows and Linux systems. Optional UEFI downloads and complete installation guides are available for each supported platform. RAID 10 (Security & Speed) - RAID 10 requires a minimum of 4 NVMe SSD’s and is comprised of a stripe between two RAID 1 arrays. RAID 10 capable of delivering read performance on par with RAID 0, and is superior to RAID 5 for NVMe applications. Unlike RAID 5, RAID 10 doesn’t necessitate additional parity related write operations, which reduce the TBW life span of NVMe SSD’s. RAID 0 (Speed) - Also known as a “stripe” array, this mode delivers Maximum Performance, and requires a minimum of 2 NVMe SSD’s. RAID 1 (Security) - This mode creates a hidden duplicate of the target SSD, and requires 2 NVMe SSD’s to configure. RAID 1 is ideal for bootable volumes. Expanded Compatibility The third generation SSD7105 was designed for easy integration into industry standard motherboard platforms using off- the-shelf M.2 SSD’s. It has been extensively tested with a wide range of commercially available M.2 NVMe drives from all major manufacturers, including MLC, TLC & QLC models, in a variety of hardware environments across both Windows, Linux and Mac platforms.

I purchased this m.2 card to add 4x 4tb sabrent rocket 3.0 ssds to my linux file server. installation was simple, just plug the drives in, place it in a pcie 3.0 x16 slot and booted the server. all drives showed up immediately and i have had no problems with it going on 10 months now. a word of warning this device will run HOT so you MUST HAVE proper airflow. I ended up strapping a slim 120mm noctua fan to it since it was hitting 70c even with the 3x 120mm noctua fans in the front of the case running at 80% duty pushing air through the 4u chassis. With the extra fan temps dropped 10c under the same load which is still a bit hot but within safe margins.

The physical installation of the card and drives was straightforward. However, setting up the RAID configuration requires booting from a UEFI drive with Highpoint's software installed, which is less user-friendly compared to other RAID controllers that allow direct access during boot. This process demands some technical knowledge, making it less suitable for beginners.Once installed, the drive performed well, and I successfully loaded my Server 2022 installation after installing the necessary drivers. The performance met my expectations, and the monitoring software was adequate. I recommend this product if you're looking for an affordable NVMe RAID PCIe card.

Being a satisfied customer of High Point I purchased 7505 after 7103Very happy about the speed and the low decibal level sound of the cooling fan.While the 7103 was little annoying my wife in terms of the PC Sound level in our bed room. But 7505 Cooling system is much worked upon.Thanks

There are two units from Highpoint. This one (the 7202) requires you to go through a few rather non-intuitive steps to get Windows to install on it if you are going to use this as a boot device. Once you follow their instructions (kudos to Highpoint for providing clear instructions) this unit works very well!There is a different unit from Highpoint - the SDD6202a that works a little easier if you want a RAID boot array. It is driverless and once the device is set via the dip-switches, behaves like a simple single drive (but is RAID 1 or 0 under the covers). I REALLY like the 6202a. It (the 6202a) has the added bonus of having LEDs that clearly indicate the status of the drives in the array. You can also set the software to monitor the array and email you if there is a failure. Both the 7202 and the 6202 will do the email thing. I did return the 7202 and bought a 5-pack of the 6202a units. These are wonderful, solid and so far appear to be stupid simple and reliable! Highpoint is also a really decent company and even reached out to me for a discussion when I sent them a few questions. A+ Highpoint!

UPDATE: Had to remove it from the machine it was in because every morning when we booted it would not show the files on it without 3-4 reboots. Once it booted with the files it seemed OK. But having ~2tb of files floating around in there made us nervous. We had 4-500 gig drives in RAID "0" for the speed but switched it for a single NVMe @ 2tb which is working great now. To spend ~$700 extra for that little boost in speed seems foolish in hindsight - but as they say live and learn.Got it installed with 4-500gig WD Black SSD NVMe's into array "0" to make one 2tb disk.One caveat though. . . If you are not an experienced computer geek you may want to have one help with the install. I have a RTX 3090 in that machine, it is a beast of a board and it had a plastic support bridge between two metal walls in the computer. This board is full height and almost as long as the graphics board so I had to use a Dremel to grind another notch so the support would go over it and still secure the graphics board. I guess I could have also sawed it. Again this may/may not be an issue for you depending upon your specific computer layout.Also download the instructions, don't use the insert that comes with the board. The link on the enclosed leaflet is dead because the is now a "-1" version so that is the drivers & software you need. We'll see how it goes from here on. After all this setup cost ~$900 and we used small size drives.

Fue una misión de varias pizzas, al final logramos que funcionara en Windows pero en Linux no. Quedó como interfaz sin RAID por que el servidor en cuestión es Linux, pero funciona perfecto como interfaz PCIe- NVME

Works great for my Mac Pro 5,1.I'm able to do Raid-0 with 2 drives. Speed is great.But the boot drive remains from a single drive. I don't think it can boot from a Raid setup (never tried, just from what I understand, it wouldn't work).

What can I say it seems like a good idea but poorly executed. Was fairly easy to setup and configure but the raid was wildly unstable in any config. Was blistering fast when it worked but would have to be rebuilt every boot it seems.Went to RMA and they wanted all kinds of logs and file dumps and been going through RMA with this company since July 2020 and no response since last entry oct 10th 2020 between then its been try this that send us this and that. Would highly avoid this company. Attached are thermals of the controller completely dead as well.

MacPro 2009 ファームウェア5.1でboot ROMをNVMe対応にFlashすると、Windows10を起動ドライブとして使用できました。Windows10のインストールはUEFIモードで行い、インストール後、起動してからMac用のドライバの更新を行なって完了です。起動はcommandボタンを押してMacの電源を入れて、EFI Bootを選ぶと起動できます。 bootROMのFlashが面倒でしたが、https://mussann.blogspot.com/2019/05/macpro-2012-m2-nvme-ssd_12.html?m=1 の記事を参考に ROMの書き換えができました。次はMac OS（High Sierra）をNVMe で起動できるようにやってみるところです。Mac OSとWin10をこのHighPoint 7101A-1から bootできるようにしてみたいと思います。それから、このカードのファンの音がうるさいという口コミが海外であり、ファンの交換をして使っている人もいるようでしたが、今回購入したものは、どうやらファンが改良されているようで、音はさほど気になりませんでした。ファンのケーブルが2極のものから3極のものに変更になっています。ファンの3極コネクタを接続するコネクタの位置も変更されているので、何らかの対策がとられたのかな？と思います。ベンチマークもこのご老体MacProでは大満足の速度です。ちなみに、NVMe ブレードはWD Black 500GBです。Samsung 970 EVOと迷ったのですが、なんとなく昔からWDが好きだったので、それにしました。特に大きな理由はありません。EVO970 Plusは、MacProの古いタイプではうまく動かないらしいので、注意してください。1枚目の写真は、HighPoint 7101A-1とWD Black500GB の組み合わせのベンチです。2枚目は、もともとBoot Campで使用していたIntel2.5インチSSD（SATA）160GBのベンチです。

In my opinion, the SSD7101A-1 is the best M.2 RAID card on the market. Primarily, I use this as workspace for rendering projects. It has proven to be a great investment and has seriously cut down production time.While performing multiple tests with Samsung 970 EVO’s I was able to repeatedly document numbers in the range of 13,000 MB/s. Real world use is unbelievable – it’s amazing how fast this card is for the price.I should add, the card also works with Kingston drives and likely any other NVMe drive currently available - it is not limited to Samsung. Some may be confused by some of the ads/marketing released for this controller (it does not include SSD’s like the rSSD versions).Also, the card is not bootable. It is designed for high performance apps, rather than to support a system’s boot drive. Honestly, this kind of speed would be wasted on something so basic. A single onboard NVMe drive or even SATA SSD would be a better option for booting the OS.One thing you will have to look out for is the need to have 16 lanes available for the maximum performance. You will need a system/motherboard capable of reserving 16x lanes just for this card, otherwise you will seriously handicap the speed. No worries if you aren’t a major DIYer - the included RAID software has an easy method of checking if you are connected to a x16 slot, or not.
