Connecting Destination Drives - Logicube Falcon-NEO User Manual

The Falcon-NEO Source ports are hot swappable (including the PCIe ports).
Source drives do not have to be connected in any order. For example, a single
SATA Source drive does not have to be connected to the SAS_S1 port. It can be
connected to the SAS_S2 port without having anything connected to the SAS_S1
port.
Any combination of drives can be connected. For example, one SAS drive, one
SATA drive, one USB drive, and one PCIe drive can all be connected at the same
time.

2.2.2 Connecting Destination Drives

Destination drives (also called evidence drives) must be connected to the right
side of the Falcon-NEO. These ports are labeled as follows:

lines corresponding to the proper data port.
Some drives are not hot swappable. Please check
with the drive manufacturer to find out if the
drive being used does not support hot swapping.
Never connect a suspect or Source drive to the
Destination ports of the Falcon-NEO. Data may be
overwritten if a drive is connected to a Destination port.
