5. For the first four drives (ports 0 - 3), connect one 4-port combined end of an
internal cable to the right connector (see letter “A” in Figure 3 ). If you are using
more than four drives without using an expander backplane, connect the second
cable to the left connector (see letter “B” in Figure 3 ). Connect the other end of the
cables to SATA drives or to the ports on a SATA or SAS backplane (see letter “C”
in Figure 3 ).
To prevent throughput problems:
✧
Use the cables provided or use the shortest possible cable.
✧
Do not use cables longer than one meter.
✧
Decrease the maximum length by one foot if you are using a backplane.
✧
Do not use cross-over cables.
✧
Only connect to a SATA drive, SAS or SATA backplane, or an expander
device.
✧
Route the cables carefully.
✧
Check that the controller and cables are all properly attached.
