CN1 |
HDD activity connector |
CN2 |
HDD fail signal (not used with 3405/3805) |
CN5 |
Fault LED output connector (to front panel) |
JC1 |
I2C connector (not used with 3405/3805) |
CN9 |
Jumper to enqable/disable SGPIO support (should be fitted for 3405/3805) |
CN7 |
Mini-SAS connector (connects to 3405/3805) |
Ensure that jumpers are installed between pins 1-2, 3-4, 5-6, 7-8 as shown at left. This allows the disk drives to control the disk activity LEDs on each carrier.
Ensure a jumper is installed on pins 1-2 to enable SGPIO support.
NOTE: The I2C connector JC1 and fail LED connector CN2 are not used in this configuration.
The Chenbro 4-drive mini-SAS backplane for SR series includes an enclosure processor device which manages the backplane LEDs. The RAID controller communicates with the device on the backplane over dedicated signals within the mini-SAS link cable. Ensure you use a mini-SAS to mini-SAS link cable type (such as the Chenbro 26H113215-012) which connects the sidebands signals.
In this condition... |
The LED will display... |
SATA drive activity |
LED will illuminate green when the drive is accessed |
SAS drive activity |
LED will illuminate green when idle and blink off when accessed |
Drive fault |
|
Identify drive from Adaptec Storage Manager |
|
Adaptec Storage Manager will display each 4-slot mini-SAS backplane as a separate enclosure and will report an Adaptec SGPIO SEP device corresponding to the Chenbro enclosure processor device.
