XR12 what cables need to connect all 6 NVME drives in direct connection for ZFS?

Hello thanks for choosing Dell. This is what I found.

2.5-inch backplane

https://www.dell.com/support/manuals/en-ht/poweredge-xr12/pexr12_ism_pub/cable-routing?guid=guid-fe…

shod be connected only one cable or both? -> only 1 is fine

S150 does support non- RAID however please note that it's up to 4 NVMEs, not 6.

Respectfully,

@DELL-Young E​ Hello I disagree with your answer. Because im refrain the same documentation and know the I other solution is possible connect more NVME disks.

This is from same documentation on page 8.

Table 5. Virtual disk specifications for PERC S150 with NVMe configuration

Specification PERC S150

Maximum number of physical disks supported 30

Maximum number of virtual disks supported 30

NOTE: The maximum number of virtual disks may exceed 30 when physical disks are migrated from any other

configuration or a disk in Ready state is converted to a non-RAID disk.

Maximum number of virtual disks supported from a single

disk group

8

NOTE: Maximum number of virtual disks can exceed more than 8 from a single disk group as there is no constraint from

PERC S150.

Who tell me the truth?

This is the reason why im asking about Cables.

Is about physical connection to the Mainboard and enough PCIE lanes.

Anyway , who can give me answer what Dell PN of cable/s I need if I want switch from SAS configuration what are now connected with HBA355i to backplane?

Hi, S150 does not work alone we have specific configurations with it when it’s plugged to a server. So you have to refer to the information I gave.

@DELL-Young E​ Hello Thank You for the information. Where I Have the Cable part number for connection the 4 NVME drivers, if you replied please?

For the parts related inquiries please visit Find Parts & Upgrades for Your Dell Computer & more | Dell USA It is best to get in touch with sale as it is best that you get Dell certified parts. We cannot guarantee its function for a 3rd party part components. 

@DELL-Young E​ This is what I tried First. Nothing there if I clic on the parts store. Second point is Im in Europe not u US so here sales suport not will help me. This I the main reason to get the Dell P/N for cables to try contact Dell in Europe the even get cables is possible. My first reply was that they don't know and want sell me new Server what is not needed.

Sorry our team is only related to technical support and break and fix query.

We cannot manage sales request or part number information. 

Thanks

@DELL-Marco B​ Thank You for your "support" On other Dell post what try to get information your posted Dell Numbers and  have no problem to provide. Can I assume if will be somebody willing to help? 

While the others are correct, we are more break fix than sales and that we don't support configuration changes, I believe the part numbers you are looking for are part # TX79R and N16D4. 

Hope this helps.

@DELL-Chris H ​ Thank You for the help, will try to reach out to Europe Dell support if this cables are even possible to buy here.
