1.4 SAS JBOD Expansion

The SAS JBOD Expansion is sold separately from the A12S2-PS. The SAS JBOD expansion

uses 2U 12 drive rack mount chassis similar to the A12S2-PS. The SAS JBOD expansion

can be daisy-chained, up to maximum of 3 units, from a single A12S2-PS to expand

capacity to a maximum of 48 hard drives (including the A12S2-PS). The SAS JBOD

expansions can be controlled off a single A12S-PS RAID controller, providing a cost

effective solution to expanding the RAID capacity.

Note

The SAS JBOD is not equipped with a RAID controller and thus

can not be used independently of the A12S2-PS.
