1.4 SAS JBOD Expansion
The SAS JBOD Expansion is sold separately from the A12S2-PS. The SAS JBOD expansion
uses 2U 12 drive rack mount chassis similar to the A12S2-PS. The SAS JBOD expansion
can be daisy-chained, up to maximum of 3 units, from a single A12S2-PS to expand
capacity to a maximum of 48 hard drives (including the A12S2-PS). The SAS JBOD
expansions can be controlled off a single A12S-PS RAID controller, providing a cost
effective solution to expanding the RAID capacity.
Note
The SAS JBOD is not equipped with a RAID controller and thus
can not be used independently of the A12S2-PS.
