SAS Backplane Boards

There are two SAS backplane board options, one supporting up to five 3.5-inch drives, and the other

supporting up to eight 2.5-inch drives. For the 2.5-inch option only, an additional board, the peripheral

interposer board, provides some of the connectors (see "Peripheral Interposer Board Connectors"

on page 17).
