IBM Power 8 57D8 ... PCIe3 x8 cache SAS RAID internal adapter, expanded function
57D8 is the IBM identifier for a pCIe3 x8 cache SAS RAID internal adapter, expanded function, FRU part number 00MA020. It applies to 8247-42L, 8286-41A, 8286-42A.
57D8 identifies a pCIe3 x8 cache SAS RAID internal adapter, expanded function on IBM Power 8 systems, carried in IBM parts documentation under FRU part number 00MA020. IBM lists it against 8247-42L, 8286-41A, 8286-42A.
The base adapter has no write cache. The expanded-function adapter does. Swapping one for the other changes RAID capability and performance behaviour, so match the part to the backplane it was configured with.
Before you order against this number, read the VPD on the machine itself. Power 8 systems were built over several years and a machine that left the factory with one part may well have been serviced since.
