About the 7Y37A01085

The Lenovo 7Y37A01085 is an enterprise-class 16-port internal 12Gb SAS/SATA RAID controller powered by the Broadcom SAS3516 dual-core ROC. Equipped with 4GB of onboard 2133MHz DDR4 cache and flash-backed power protection, it supports demanding RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, and 60 volume configurations. It provides dense 16-drive direct connectivity without requiring a secondary SAS expander card.

Compatibility

Compatible with Lenovo ThinkSystem SR650, SR630, SR850, SR950, and ST550 servers with backplanes requiring up to 16 SAS/SATA drives. It connects via four internal Mini-SAS HD (SFF-8643) ports. It requires connection to a supercapacitor flash power module to enable write-back caching and prevent data loss during sudden power outages.

How to identify a genuine unit

The adapter displays a Lenovo label showing option code 7Y37A01085, FRU part number 01KN508, and feature code AUNJ. The board carries four SFF-8643 connectors along the top and rear edges, an onboard 4GB DRAM cache chip, and a power connection header for the flash backup unit. It reports as ThinkSystem RAID 930-16i in XClarity.

Buying used

When buying a used 930-16i controller, confirm that the included flash power module (supercap) and tether cable are present and undamaged. Test all four SFF-8643 ports under traffic load to ensure proper PHY link negotiation. Request diagnostic logs showing clean battery/capacitor health and zero media errors.
