The 8205-E6C or 8205-E6D server provides cable connector locations for the following enclosures:
• Support for expansion units, as shown in the following figure, is as follows:
– The card installed in the C1 slot can contain two 12X double data rate (DDR) cable ports. However,
the C1 slot cannot provide both 12X DDR and PCIe cable ports.
– The card installed in the C8 slot can contain two 12X DDR cable ports. However, the C8 slot cannot
provide both 12X DDR and PCIe cable ports.
– The port card type installed in the C1 slot can differ from the port card type installed in the C8 slot.
– The server contains a serial-attached SCSI (SAS) port.
• Support for disk drive enclosures, as shown in the following figure, is as follows:
– The server contains a SAS port.
• Support for PCIe storage enclosures, as shown in the following figure, is as follows:
– The card installed in the C1 slot can contain two PCIe cable ports. However, the C1 slot cannot
