SAS Controller Daughter Card
Your system has a dedicated slot (INT STORAGE) for a SAS controller
daughter card. See Figure 3-14. The SAS controller daughter card provides
the SAS storage subsystem for your system’s internal hard drives.
NOTE:
The non-RAID SAS controller daughter card supports a maximum of four
SAS or SATA hard drives. The drives must occupy drive bays 0 through 3.
The optional SAS RAID controller daughter card supports up to 10 SAS or
SATA hard drives and enables you to set up your hard drives in a RAID
configuration. For more information, see the documentation that came with
your SAS RAID controller daughter card.
