Connecting cables from the system board to the backplane
To connect cables from the system board to the backplane, do the following:
1. Use one mini-SAS to mini-SAS signal cable. Connect one connector of the mini-SAS signal cable to the
SAS connector 0-3 on the system board. Then, connect the other connector of the mini-SAS signal
cable to the mini-SAS ports 0-3 on the hot-swap hard-disk-drive backplane.
2. If you have more than four hard disk drives installed, use the other mini-SAS to mini-SAS signal cable.
Connect one connector of the mini-SAS signal cable to the SAS connector 4-7 on the system board.
Then, connect the other connector of the mini-SAS signal cable to the mini-SAS ports 4-5 or mini-SAS
prots 4-7 on the hot-swap hard-disk-drive backplane.
Note:
If you connect the mini-SAS to mini-SAS signal cables from the system board to the backplane,
you can configure RAID using the configuration utility for the ThinkServer RAID 300. See “Configuring
the ThinkServer RAID 300” on page 65.
Connecting cables from the RAID card to the backplane
If your server has a supported RAID card installed, you can connect cables from the RAID card to the
backplane to support up to six hard disk drives. In this case, you can configure RAID for the hard disk
drives using the advanced hardware RAID functions.
Note:
The option kit for the RAID card is designed for different types of servers and might contain additional
cables that are not required for your server.
Figure 28. Connecting cables from the RAID card to the backplane
To connect cables from the RAID card to the backplane, do one of the following depending on the type of
your RAID card:
• If you are using a ThinkServer RAID 500 Adapter, do the following:
1. Use one mini-SAS to mini-SAS signal cable. Connect the mini-SAS connector
1
on one end of the
cable to the port 0 on the RAID card. Then, connect the mini-SAS connector
2
on the other end of
the cable to the mini-SAS ports 0-3 on the backplane.
2. If your server has more than four hard disk drives installed, use the other mini-SAS to mini-SAS
signal cable. Connect the mini-SAS connector
3
on one end of the cable to the port 1 on the RAID
card. Then, connect the mini-SAS connector
4
on the other end of the cable to the mini-SAS ports
4-5 or mini-SAS prots 4-7 on the backplane.
