Figure 6. Cable connection order and notes.
It is advisable but not necessary to attach the drives in a consistent ordering in the event
that data needs to be recovered or a drive replaced. In figure 6.a, the circled SATA cable bundle
shows the desirable drive numbering used. The manufacturer may not guarantee that the cables
will always be thus bundled, though you may use these images to trace the SATA cables to their
connection point on the port-multiplier board and use the same numbering scheme.
As shipped, the cables in the enclosure were zip-tied in way that made connecting the drives
difficult. It may be necessary to cut a zip-tie or two near the area highlighted (shown with zip-tie
already removed).
