Dell PERC H330 Mini-Mono RAID Controller — GDJ3J

The PERC H330 is a mini mono RAID controller, sold under Dell part number GDJ3J.

Hardware RAID offloads parity calculations from the host and presents the array to the operating system as ordinary volumes. The Mini Mono format sits in its own motherboard slot, so no PCIe slot is used. Arrays are created and managed from the controller’s pre-boot utility or from management software in the operating system. Controllers of the same family can usually take over an existing array from its drives, but check firmware levels before swapping one for another. Drives connect through the server’s backplane, so the controller has to suit the backplane it is cabled to. As a Dell PERC it is intended for PowerEdge servers; check your server’s supported controller list. Disk and array health show up in the server’s hardware management logs. Look-alike parts can differ in revision, and the Dell part number is what tells them apart. Matching the Dell part number GDJ3J against your system's parts list is the surest way to confirm the controller fits.

Certified refurbished condition: the part is inspected, bench-tested and function-checked in Johannesburg.
