Connecting Your E800MS-Host Workstation
Your E800MS is equipped with two industry standard SFF8088 x4 MiniSAS
interface ports. The correct cable type is detirmined by the HBA or RAID
controller
you
have
seleceted.
Please
visit
our
website
at
www.enhance-tech.com to learn more about cable options for your HBA.
Ensure that the Mini SAS connector is properly secured & fastned. Most
commom issues are related to poor cable connection. Do not force connector
into place.
After connecting the cable to your E800MS connect Mini SAS cable to an open port on
your MiniSAS HBA or RAID controller. Currently there is no MiniSAS connector standard.
The most common interface cable types are both SFF8088-to-SFF8088, and
SFF8088-to-SFF8470. To select the right cable type, please refer to your RAID card’s
documentation.
