ASUS RS700-E7/RS4-C 4-9
3. PSAS 1 and 2 connectors
Supported by the ASUS PIKE card, these connectors are for the SAS signal
cables for SAS hard disk drives that allows up to 6Gb/s of data transfer rate.
After installing the PIKE RAID card and SAS hard disk drives, ensure that
the SAS signal cable is connected to the PSAS1 port to create a RAID
conguration.
Also, ensure that the SGPIO_SEL1 jumper on the backplane is set to pins
2-3 (Default). Refer to 2.7 SATAII/SAS backplane cabling for details.
The actual data transfer rate depends on the speed of SAS/SATA hard disks
installed.
