SATA Storage Enclosures (FS4100 and FS4500)
Daisy-chaining Adaptec SATA Storage
Enclosures
You can daisy-chain up to eight FS4100 Storage Enclosures in a
system. You can daisy-chain up to seven FS4100 Storage Enclosures
behind an FS4500 Storage Enclosure.
To daisy-chain enclosures, connect the Expansion port of one shelf
to the Host port of another.
Setting Shelf IDs
You must set a unique shelf ID for each Storage Enclosure before
powering on the system. The shelf ID switch is located in the ES
module on the back of the Storage Enclosure. (See
.) Adaptec recommends that the first shelf in the chain be
set to
0
, the second shelf in the chain be set to
1
, and so on.
