EonStor S12S-R/G1032 Installation and Hardware Reference Manual
MUX kits will be necessary for directing access from
RAID controllers to individual SATA drives.
You may select
SATA-II disk drives for a dual-controller
subsystem, then the MUX boards
should be separately
purchased and installed.
MUX boards and MUX-enabled drive trays are separate
accessories and can be purchased separately.
NOTE:
The S12S-G1032 “
single-controller
” enclosure
accommodates both
SAS
and
SATA-II
disk drives without
the need for the MUX kits.
If
SAS
interface hard drives are going to be installed into the
drive trays that have MUX boards on it, the MUX boards
should be removed from the drive trays prior to hard drive
installation.

upgrading/changing the DIMM module, the controller module should
never be removed or opened.
