Hello All,
I'm just starting to think about building some mass-storage arrays and
am looking to better understand some of the components involved.
For example, the Supermicro SC826 series of systems is available with
three backplanes:
1. SAS / SATA Expander Backplane with single LSI SASX28 Expander Chip
2. SAS / SATA Expander Backplane with dual LSI SASX28 Expander Chips
3. SAS / SATA Direct Attached Backplane
Assuming I am using this an external array, connected to a server via
SAS, how do these fit into my topology? Expander, dual-expanders and
no expander? Huh?
Thanks for pointing to relevant documentation.
A.
