SAS cable connections for SSD data cache on VTrak D5800
VTrak D5800 SSD Data Cache Module
The VTrak D5800 includes a module used for an SSD data cache. If you will use this, make sure to install the
SSD drives and connect the SAS cables before you configure the storage.
Note that the disk carrier hardware is identical to the 2.5” disk carriers used for the VTrak D5320. Install identical
SSD drives in all four disk carriers. Go to www.promise.com for a list of compatible SSD drives.
1. Connect the left most SAS port on the data cache module to the left most SAS port on the left controller.
2. Connect the right most SAS port on the data cache module to the left most SAS port on the right
controller.
Important Notice for VTrak D5800
In order to use the optional SSD data cache, it is necessary to
install four SSD drives and connect the SSD data cache module to
both controllers via SAS cable. This must be done BEFORE storage
configuration.
