10-4 Internal Cabling Diagrams
To build a disk array, at least two hard disk drives are required. Use the SATA cables provided with the disk array
controller (SATA) for the connection. Remove the cables connected to the hard disk drives and save them for future use.
IMPORTANT:
Use hard disk drives with the same capacity and performance.
Purchase the power cables separately.
Floppy disk drive
To indicate the access status of the internal hard disk drives, connect the LED cable provided with the server to the LED
connector on the mother board and the disk array controller (SATA).
You can check the disk status (disk error or rebuilding of disk array) through the disk array management utility,
Web-based Promise Array Manager, coming with the disk array controller (SATA).
