1. Use one mini-SAS to mini-SAS signal cable. Connect the mini-SAS connector 1 on one end of the
cable to the port 0 on the RAID card. Then, connect the mini-SAS connector 2 on the other end of
the cable to the mini-SAS ports 0-3 on the backplane.
2. If your server has more than four hard disk drives installed, use the other mini-SAS to mini-SAS
signal cable. Connect the mini-SAS connector 3 on one end of the cable to the port 1 on the RAID
card. Then, connect the mini-SAS connector
4 on the other end of the cable to the mini-SAS ports
4-5 on the backplane.
