ML3 Tape with two tape drives - Need help with cabling
So i will be racking an ML3 tape library along with one host (PowerEdge R350) thats equipped with an HBA355e 4 port SAS card.
I am not sure how would would the cabling look like in terms of connecting the sas cables between the host and the ML3 since each tape drive has 2 sas ports so 4 in total
For example - SAS PORT 1 on ML3 goes to SAS 2 on the host
Can someone provide me with a diagram maybe ? that would be much appreciated

Hi @sam12111,
As for ML3, there isn't a standardized documentation for reference on cabling on ML3. The cabling is relative simple, SAS0 from host to SAS0 storage.
