Storage Rack DA with Port Multiplier Using Multilane
Connection
Note: The Port Multiplier will only work with Port Multiplier aware multilane host
controllers. It is compatible with multilane host controllers using the Silicon Image
Chip SiI3124 & SiI3132.
When the port multiplier (PM) is connected to the multilane host controller with
SiI3124 or SiI3132 chip, in the RAID BIOS of the host controller, you will only see
one drive and that is the drive connected to SATA port 1 on the Port Multiplier.
All SATA drives connected to the PM will show in the SATARAID5 Array Manager.
Refer to the SATARAID5 Management Utility User Guide V1.6 for RAID
implementation
