RC – Port 0 SAS HDD1 SAS HDD1–B SAS HDD1–B
RC – Port 1 SAS HDD2 SAS HDD2–D SAS HDD2–D
RC – Port 2 SAS HDD3 SAS HDD3–D SAS HDD3–D
RC – Port 3 SAS HDD4 SAS HDD4–D SAS HDD4–D
SATA 0 ODD 1 ODD 1 ODD 1
SATA 1 ODD 2 ODD 2 ODD 2
sSATA 0 — — —
sSATA 1 — — —
sSATA 2 eSATA (top) SATA (top) SATA (top)
sSATA 3 SATA (bottom) SATA (bottom) SATA (bottom)
eSATA = external SATA (2 ports per cable assembly)
If eSATA is installed, the ODD is attached to sSATA 3.
If 4 SATA HDDs are installed on sSATA and eSATA is installed, there will be no ODD.
HDD = hard drive
ODD = optical drive
