NOTE:
The warranty of the drives are linked to the Service Tag of the corresponding sled.
Expander zoning
A SAS expander board allows higher, single-volume hard drive configurations. An integrated expander device expands each sleds hard drive
footprint.
The Dell EMC PowerEdge C6400 enclosure allows four sleds to access a single expander controller at the same time. there are two zoning
options available, they are:
