CAUTION: Never use a cable where power is supplied through the SAS connector because
this may damage the drive. Always use a spare power cord from the server's internal power
supply. This caution does not apply to LTO–6 Ultrium 6250 and LTO-5 Ultrium 3000 tape
drives.

required in this configuration. Coil and secure the unused cabling so that it does not interfere
with other components inside the server.
