Are 12GB/s SAS drives backwards compatible w6/GB/s controller?


Recommended Posts

Hi there,

I need to purchase some used SAS drives for my MD 1200 and have found that 10Tib 12GB/s SAS drives are more readily available in the used market than 6/GB/s disks.

My question: Since the MD1200 H200 is 6GB/s, if I plug 12GB/s SAS drives in, will the drives down scale to 6 or or will fail to recognize them?

Thanks in advance
