đź’ˇ Pro-Tips for Buyers
If you are planning to connect this shelf to a standard white-box PC or custom server (rather than an enterprise NetApp head unit), you will need an external Host Bus Adapter (HBA) card flashed to IT-Mode (such as an LSI 9207-8e) and a standard QSFP (SFF-8436) to Mini-SAS (SFF-8088) conversion cable.
This IOM6 configuration natively supports both enterprise SAS drives and standard consumer SATA hard drives without requiring expensive interposer boards.
