• To help with management of the mini SAS HD cable between enclosures and prevent incorrect
connections, make sure to attach the destination labels to the connectors of the cables.
• When connecting the mini SAS HD cable between enclosures, check the direction of the connector (the
tab must be pointed downward) and firmly insert all the way in.
To disconnect the mini SAS HD cables between enclosures, hold the tab and then pull out the connector.
