6 x 2.5'' SAS/SATA + 4 x 2.5'' AnyBay backplane
See this section to understand the cable routing of 6 front 2.5'' SAS/SATA drives and 4 front 2.5'' AnyBay drives with 10 x 2.5 backplane (Gen 5) 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 cables for a rear NVMe/SAS/SATA drive backplane, refer to Rear NVMe/SAS/SATA drive backplane.
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).
| Backplane | From | To |
|---|---|---|
| Front BP (NVMe) | 1 NVMe 8-9 | 1 PCIe connector 7 |
| 2 NVMe 6-7 | 2 PCIe connector 1 | |
| Front BP (SAS) | 3 SAS 0-3, SAS 4-7 | 3
