6 x 2.5'' SAS/SATA + 2 x 2.5'' AnyBay + 2 x 2.5'' NVMe backplane
See this section to understand the cable routing of 6 front SAS/SATA drives, 2 front AnyBay drives, and 2 front NVMe drives.
To connect power cables for a backplane for standard 2.5'' or 3.5'' drives, refer to Backplane power cable routing.
To connector cables of RAID flash power modules, refer to RAID flash power modules.
To connect the cables for rear NVMe/SAS/SATA drive backplane, refer to Rear NVMe/SAS/SATA drive backplane.
To connect signal cables, refer to the following cable routing scenario:
Cable routing with an SFF HBA/RAID adapter
The following tables show the mapping relationship between backplane connectors and an 8i SFF HBA/RAID adapter.
Figure 1. Cable routing with an 8i SFF HBA/RAID adapter
| Backplane | From | To |
|---|---|---|
| Front BP (NVMe) | 1 NVMe 6–7, NVMe 8–9 | 1 PCIe connectors 7, 8, and 9 |
| Front BP (SAS) | 2 SAS 0–3, SAS 4–7 | 2
