# ServeRAID C110 is an onboard hardware-assist, software RAID feature (Intel Rapid Storage Technology Enterprise [RSTe]) integrated into the Intel C232 Platform Controller Hub (PCH).
* Requires cache memory upgrade (47C8656, 47C8660, 47C8664, or 47C8668).
** One FoD upgrade enables the feature on all ServeRAID M5200 Series adapters (M5210, M5225) installed in the server.
*** One FoD upgrade enables the feature on all ServeRAID M1200 Series adapters (M1210, M1215) installed in the server.
Configuration notes:
- The onboard ServeRAID C110 controller does not consume a PCIe slot.
- The ServeRAID M1210 controller is supported only in the dedicated PCIe slot 1.
- Other controllers for internal storage (M1215, M5210, N2215) are supported only in the PCIe slot 2.
- The C110, M1210, M1215, M5210, and N2215 controllers are mutually exclusive, that is, only one of them can be selected in the configuration.
- Models of the System x3250 M6 that use the ServeRAID C110 controller do not support an upgrade to a hardware RAID controller.
