To connect the mini-SAS signal cables from the RAID card to the backplanes, do the following:
1. If you are using a ThinkServer RAID 700 Adapter, do the following:
a. Use one mini-SAS to mini-SAS signal cable. Connect the mini-SAS connector
cable to the ports 3-0 on the RAID card. Then, connect the mini-SAS connector
of the cable to the mini-SAS signal cable connector 0 on the backplane for 2.5-inch hard disk drives
or on the backplane for 3.5-inch hard disk drives. The backplane for 3.5-inch hard disk drives
is installed on the lower hard disk drive cage.
b. If your server has more than four hard disk drives installed, use the other mini-SAS to mini-SAS
signal cable. Connect the mini-SAS connector
RAID card. Then, connect the mini-SAS connector
signal cable connector 1 on the backplane for 2.5-inch hard disk drives or to the mini-SAS signal
cable connector 0 on the backplane for 3.5-inch hard disk drives. The backplane for 3.5-inch hard
disk drives is installed on the upper hard disk drive cage.
2. If you are using a ThinkServer RAID 500 Adapter, do the following:
a. Use one mini-SAS to mini-SAS signal cable. Connect the mini-SAS connector
cable to the port 0 on the RAID card. Then, connect the mini-SAS connector
the cable to the mini-SAS signal cable connector 0 on the backplane for 2.5-inch hard disk drives
or on the backplane for 3.5-inch hard disk drives. The backplane for 3.5-inch hard disk drives
is installed on the lower hard disk drive cage.
b. If your server has more than four hard disk drives installed, use the other mini-SAS to mini-SAS
signal cable. Connect the mini-SAS connector
card. Then, connect the mini-SAS connector
cable connector 1 on the backplane for 2.5-inch hard disk drives or to the mini-SAS signal cable
connector 0 on the backplane for 3.5-inch hard disk drives. The backplane for 3.5-inch hard disk
drives is installed on the upper hard disk drive cage.
Figure 25. Connecting the mini-SAS signal cables from the RAID card to the backplanes
For the connector location information about the RAID card, hot-swap hard disk drive backplane, and
system board, refer to the related topics in "Locations" on page 12.
For information about connecting the appropriate power connector of the power supply to the backplane,
see "Hot-swap hard disk drive backplane" on page 35.
Connecting the SATA signal cables from the system board to the non-hot-swap hard disk drives
For server models with up to four 3.5-inch non-hot-swap hard disk drives, connect one end of the SATA
signal cable to the rear of the non-hot-swap hard disk drive. Then, connect the other end of the SATA signal
1 on one end of the cable to the ports 7-4 on the
2 on the other end of the cable to the mini-SAS
3 on one end of the cable to the port 1 on the RAID
4 on the other end of the cable to the mini-SAS signal
3 on one end of the
4 on the other end
1 on one end of the
2 on the other end of
