I am trying to decide between purchasing an sc836 barebones chassis, one with the Bpn-sas-836tq backplane and the other with a Bpn-SAS2-836el1 backplane for about the same price.
I will be connecting either backplane to a SAS2 HBA and still haven’t decided on SAS or SATA drives so I would like the option to fully take advantage of either drive interface type.
I realize the el1 would be easier to setup with less cable clutter than the tq. Can anyone enlighten me on why to choose one verse the other?
