Connect Fusion D800RAID Drive Enclosure to Sonnet
RAID Controller
This section describes the connection of the Fusion D800RAID drive
enclosure to the Sonnet RAID controller card.
1. Connect the Infiniband end (with thumbscrews) of the
supplied data cables to the Infiniband ports on the enclosure;
use the thumbscrews to secure the connectors (Figure 5). For
identification purposes, refer to the cable connected to the top
port of the enclosure as “cable B”, and the cable connected to the
bottom port as “cable A”.
2. Connect the mini-SAS end of “cable A” to the mini-SAS port
labeled “A” on the Sonnet RAID controller card; verify the
connectors are plugged in securely (Figure 6). Repeat with “cable
B”.
3. Connect the supplied power cable between the Fusion
D800RAID enclosure and a grounded wall outlet or power strip;
verify the cable is plugged in securely.
4. Push the switch on the back of the enclosure to the on position,
and then power on your computer.
WARNING: When handling computer products, take care to
prevent components from being damaged by static electricity;
avoid working in carpeted areas. Handle drive modules only by their
edges and avoid touching connector traces and component pins.
WARNING: When inserting drive modules into the enclosure,
do not force the levers closed. If a lever does not close easily,
remove and reinsert the module, and then push the lever in again.
