SATA Drives and SAS Drives
The Tempest i5000PT is equipped with 6 Serial ATA (SATA) connectors and 8 SAS/SATA
connectors.
There is no need to set Master/Slave jumpers on SATA/SAS drives. Tyan has supplied four SATA
cables, two SATA power adapters and two Standard SAS (actual cables vary dependant on
versions purchased). If you did not receive the proper cables or power adapters for your particular
product SKU, please contact your local vendor/distributor.
The following picture illustrates how to connect a SATA drive and a SAS drive respectively.
