I have a SM 16-port SAS2 EL1 single expander backplane.
Has anyone tried connecting drives to the downstream ports using a breakout cable?
I have an Intel RES3CV360 that can do this, the downstream ports intended to connect more expanders can also be used just for more disks.
My use case is connecting more internal drives, and/or connecting to rear-mounted 2.5" SAS bays.
Thanks
