Note: To make it easier to connect the cables, release the sliding rails
and slide the MDC nodes out the front of the rack so that the
rear of the MDC nodes is flush with the rear of the Metadata
Array and the Expansion Unit (if used).
Note: There are two generations of Metadata Array controller
currently in use. While both generations of the controller use
the same SAS connection order, from left to right, different
cables are used for the connections. The Tahoe controller is
connected with a cable containing both a 12Gb SAS (square)
connection, which is attached to the Tahoe controller, and a
6Gb SAS (rectangular) connection, which is attached to the
MDC nodes and the Expansion Unit (if used). The previous
generation Snowmass Controller cable contains 6Gb
connections on both ends. Use the appropriate SAS cables for
the controllers in your Metadata Array.
