Note: To ensure that the hard disk drive ID numbering matches the drive ID numbering on the front
of the server, make sure that you connect the shorter blue power cable connector to the bottom
backplane and connect the grey power cable connector to the top backplane.
Step 7.
Connect the SAS/SATA signal cable to the backplane and to the adapter.
