6 x 2.5'' SAS/SATA + 4 x 2.5'' AnyBay backplane
See this section to understand the cable routing of 6 front SAS/SATA drives and 4 front AnyBay drives with 10 x 2.5'' backplane (Gen 4) installed.
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 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 a 16i SFF HBA/RAID adapter (Gen 3 or Gen 4).
Figure 1. Cable routing for 6 front SAS/SATA drives and 4 front AnyBay drives bays with a 16i SFF RAID adapter (Gen 3 or Gen 4)
| Backplane | From | To |
|---|---|---|
| Front BP (SAS) | 1 SAS 0, SAS 1 | 1
|
| 2 SAS 2 | 2
