expander backplane & hba card


Recommended Posts

So I'm looking at getting a server case with a 12GB expander backplane. I have a question about what type of hba card that can run the backplane.

I currently have two LSI 9210-8i card in my system right now. Can I use a SFF-8087 to SFF-8643 cable to run the hard drives on the expander backplane? 

 

If not, does anybody have a suggestion on a hba card that has 8643 ports? I have been looking at LSI 9340-8i, and LSI 9300-8i.

Any help will be appreciated.
