PowerEdge R720xd HBA Options

I'm looking at purchasing a SAS HBA (specifically an LSI 9207-8i) to connect to a R720xd 3.5" backplane for true JBOD/passthru operation, and had some questions. The 3.5" backplane for the R720xd has 3 SAS connectors -- do all 3 of these connectors need to be plugged in to have access to all 12 drives? If so, I guess I would then need to get an HBA with 4 internal connectors?
