The following are the types of cables that you can use with the D2000/D6000 disk enclosures:
0.5m External Mini SAS High Density to Mini SAS Cable
1.0m External Mini SAS High Density to Mini SAS Cable
2.0m External Mini SAS High Density to Mini SAS Cable
4.0m External Mini SAS High Density to Mini SAS Cable
6.0m External Mini SAS High Density to Mini SAS Cable
When connecting disk enclosures to the StoreEasy system, consider the following guidelines:
In a single domain configuration, the secondary I/O modules on the D6000 are not used, so
they might or might not be installed. The cabling diagrams in this section show the secondary
I/O modules are not installed.
For single domain configurations, the maximum number of disk enclosures supported by
the P441 or P841 controller are 1 D6000, 8 D2000s, or 8 D3000s (up to 200 drives total).
For dual domain configurations, the maximum number of disk enclosures supported by the
P441 controller are 8 D2000 or 8 D3000s (up to 200 drives total).
For dual domain configurations, the maximum number of disk enclosures supported by the
P841 controller are 1 D6000, 8 D2000s, or 8 D3000s (up to 200 drives total).
NOTE:
◦
The maximums listed are based on the number of drives per controller. Any StoreEasy
system could have additional or alternate controllers installed, which would affect the
overall number of supported disk enclosures. The maximum number of enclosures that
can be connected to a controller is eight.
◦
The P441 or P841 controllers support:
– Up to 200 physical drives.
– D2000 and D3000 disk enclosures; up to eight daisy chained in either single or
dual domain configuration.
– D6000 disk enclosure. Only one D6000 enclosure can be connected. Daisy chaining
is not supported.
– D6020 disk enclosures supports daisy chaining two D6020 enclosures together.
You cannot mix the D6020 and D6000 enclosures together on the same SAS chain.
In the cabling diagrams for the D2000/D3000 disk enclosure, the D2600 disk enclosure is
used. Be aware that the cabling configuration is exactly the same for all D2000/D3000 disk
enclosures.
The D6000 disk enclosures does not support connecting the enclosures in a daisy chain
arrangement. However, the D6020 disk enclosures does support a daisy chain configuration.
The D2000/D3000 disk enclosures supports SAS daisy chains. In a SAS daisy chain, the
D2000/D3000 disk enclosures are connected to each other — I/O module A from each disk
