7mm drives
This section provides cable routing information for the 7mm drives.
Note
The following uses the 7mm drives installed on riser 2 as an example for illustration. The cable routing for 7mm drives installed on riser 1 is similar.
7mm non-RAID SATA/NVMe 2-Bay backplanes
Note
The 7mm non-RAID SATA/NVMe 2-Bay backplanes support SATA cable connection, NVMe cable connection, or RAID cable connection.

| From | To | From | To |
| 1 Power connector on the 7mm backplane | 1 7mm power connector on the system board assembly | 1 Signal connector on the 7mm drive backplane | 1 M.2/7mm backplane signal connector on the system board assembly |
Figure 3. NVMe cable routing  Note The illustration shows four NVMe cable connection options, but the four options are mutually exclusive. Select one of them based on your scenario. | Figure 4. RAID cable routing  | ||
| From | To | From | To |
| Signal connector on the 7mm drive backplane | 1 PCIe 1 | 1 Signal connector on the 7mm drive backplane | 1 8i adapter: C0 |
| 2 PCIe 3 (one processor installed) | |||

| 4 PCIe 10 | |||
7mm RAID NVMe 2-Bay backplanes
7mm RAID SATA/NVMe 2-Bay backplanes
Note
The cable routing for 7mm RAID NVMe 2-Bay backplanes is the same as that for 7mm RAID SATA/NVMe 2-Bay backplanes.
