The FIO tag on the 749974-B21 marks a factory integrated option, one HP offers only through configure-to-order builds. The board itself is the HP Smart Array P440ar/2GB FBWC 12Gb 2-ports Int FIO SAS controller, a Flexible Smart Array controller with 2GB of flash-backed write cache.
It supports up to 8 internal SAS/SATA drives without using a PCIe slot, and the option includes the Smart Storage Battery. It appears in the factory-integrated option choices for the ProLiant ML350 Gen9, DL380 Gen9 and DL360 Gen9.
When the ML350 Gen9 is ordered with this controller, the HP ML350 Gen9 Flexible Smart Array Controller Mini-SAS Cable Kit, 765652-B21, must be selected as well. The ML350 Gen9 SAS Expander Card, 769635-B21, cannot be connected to the P440ar. The same board without the FIO marking is the 726736-B21.
Related Smart Array parts, among them the 769635-B21 12Gb SAS expander card for ML350 Gen9, are in HPE server interface cards.
