2. ISAS1 and ISATA1 connectors
The ISAS1 connector supported by the Intel
®
ASRK module(optional), this
connector supports four SATA 3Gb/s ports (from motherboard to SATAII/
SAS backplane board to connect HDD 1 - HDD 4). The ISATA1 connector
supported two SATA 3Gb/s and two SATA 6Gb/s ports (from motherboard to
SATAII/SAS backplane board to connect HDD 5 - HDD 8).
If you install an Intel
®
ASRK module, ensure to move the SAS signal cable
from ISATA1 to the ISAS1 connector. Also, ensure that the SGPIO_SEL1
jumper on the backplane is set to pins 2-3 (Default). Refer to
2.7 SATAII/SAS
backplane cabling
for details.
The actual data transfer rate depends on the speed of SAS/SATA hard disks
installed.
