The HPE 870658-B21 Smart Array P824i-p MR Gen10 is an internal RAID controller designed for selected HPE ProLiant Gen10 servers. With 24 internal SAS lanes, 12Gb/s SAS connectivity and 4GB flash-backed write cache, it supports enterprise storage environments requiring multiple hard drives or SSDs.
Unlike basic eight-lane RAID controllers, the P824i-p can connect up to 24 compatible internal SAS or SATA drives directly, without requiring a separate SAS expander card. This makes it suitable for supported high-density storage configurations.

One of the main advantages of the P824i-p is its 24-lane internal SAS architecture.
It provides direct connectivity for up to 24 compatible SAS or SATA drives in supported server configurations. This can simplify storage cabling and reduce the need for additional expansion hardware.
The controller is particularly useful for businesses operating:
Actual drive support depends on the server chassis, backplane, cable kit and storage configuration.
The HPE 870658-B21 includes 4GB flash-backed write cache (FBWC), which helps manage storage read and write operations.
For suitable workloads, the cache can improve responsiveness when the server processes frequent storage requests.
The controller also includes CacheCade, an SSD caching technology that can help accelerate access to frequently requested data when configured with supported drives.
A compatible HPE Smart Storage Battery or Hybrid Capacitor is required for protected cache operation. This backup power hardware is sold separately, so confirm whether it is already installed in your server.
The P824i-p belongs to HPE’s MR controller family and uses different management tools from the Smart Array SR series.
Supported tools include:
Administrators should use the appropriate MR management software and firmware for this controller. HPE Smart Storage Administrator used with SR controllers should not be assumed to provide equivalent management functionality.
HPE documents P824i-p support for selected configurations of these server families:
Support is configuration-specific. For example, the DL360 Gen10 has restrictions involving its chassis type and PCIe slot placement.
Before ordering, check the server’s QuickSpecs for the correct storage backplane, cable kit, PCIe slot and backup power requirements.
If you are replacing an existing controller or upgrading storage capacity, confirm the following:
When replacing a controller connected to existing RAID arrays, make sure a current backup is available. Follow HPE’s recovery instructions before importing, modifying or initialising storage configurations.
A New or unused HPE 870658-B21 may suit businesses expanding or maintaining an existing ProLiant Gen10 server. Confirm whether the available unit is unused legacy stock and whether cables or backup power accessories are included.
A Refurbished P824i-p can provide a cost-conscious replacement for a failed RAID controller without replacing the complete server.
Before purchasing, ask whether the controller has been inspected and tested for hardware detection, SAS connectivity and cache functionality.
For both conditions, confirm the exact supplied components, warranty and UK delivery arrangements.
