Expander zoning
A SAS expander board allows higher, single-volume hard drive configurations. An integrated expander device expands each sleds hard drive
footprint.
The PowerEdge 6400 enclosure allows four sleds to access a single expander controller at the same time. there are two zoning options
available, they are:
•
Up to 6 SAS/SATA device of each sled in Split Mode (6+6+6+6)
