Connecting Ds4246

Hello all,

I have been looking through the forums and I find myself more confused than ever trying to get the correct information to complete my project. 

I want to connect Netapp DS4246 with 2 IMO6's installed to my PC with an Asus TUF GAMING X570-PLUS with AMD Ryzen 5 3600.

I am running Unraid 6.9.2

 

My problem is...

What card do I need to install in my PC? 

What cables do I need to connect them?

Do I run 1 cable or 2 to the PC?

 

I am fairly new to Unraid and totally new to server gear. 

 

Any help would be great.

Thank You

Tony

BUMP!!! I haven't bought one yet but I'd like to and want to know more as well.
I do believe you can buy any LSI HAB that has been flashed to "IT mode".
Since you mentioned the IOM6 you'll want a SAS 6gbps.
This guy called "The ART of Server" has an awesome ebay store and I assume he can advise you on what you need.
This should be what you'd need I think.
