That only applies when connecting the HBA to a SAS expander or backplane with a built in SAS expander, one cable=single link, two cables=dual link. Quote Link to comment
srmvel Posted April 12, 2021 Author Share Posted April 12, 2021 Thanks much JorgeB for prompt response. For example, If I want to use 24 sata ssd drives with hba 9300,then I can use sas expander. Hba 9300---Sas expander---sas cable----sata ssd disks. Dual link means, I can attach sas cables with 2 ports of sas expander? Quote Link to comment
