Connecting PowerEdge R540 to TL4000

Hello


I want to connect server PowerEdge R540 to TL4000 by SAS cable.
The server has 12Gb SAS HBA Card with mini-sas hd ports and in Tape Library are 6Gb mini-sas ports

I found "Dell SFF-8088 to SFF-8644 Mini SAS HD" but i don't know which P/N is correct: #6N57X or #YJXMR or some different one ?

Which cable should i buy to avoid any problems ?

Hello Radoslaw,

 

You are correct this cable should work:  #YJXMR -2 Meter, External HD2Mini SAS Cable for 6G SAS Low Profile

 

Remember it is a one-to-one connection.  So, if you have two tape drives, each tape drive would require a connection to the server.  No Daisy chaining.

 

I hope this helps you.
