Connecting disk enclosures (Inapplicable to Dorado5000 V3 (NVMe) C00)
A SAS port can only connect to one disk enclosure.
Each expansion loop of disk enclosures must be connected to two adjacent ports (excluding ports P1 and P2)
of the 12 Gbit/s SAS interface module on a controller enclosure, for example, ports P0 and P1 or ports P2 and
P3.
Port EXP0 and port EXP1 of each controller enclosure must be connected to port P0 and port P1 of disk
enclosure 0, instead of different disk enclosures.
Port P0 and port P1 of the 12 Gbit/s SAS interface module of each controller enclosure must be connected to
port P0 and port P1 of disk enclosure 1, instead of different disk enclosures.
Each controller connects to ports P0 and P1 of a disk enclosure via two cables. That is, each controller
enclosure connects to a disk enclosure via four cables.
