HP StorageWorks 2000 Modular Smart Array G2 cable configuration guide (457746-004, June 2009)

Connecting to an MSA70 drive enclosure
IMPORTANT:
The MSA70 drive enclosure requires firmware version 2.18 or
later to be supported with the MSA2000fc G2.
A: Connecting an MSA2000fc G2 single-controller array enclosure to
an MSA70 drive enclosure with a single I/O module requires one (1)
mini-SAS to mini-SAS cable.
A + B: Connecting an MSA2000fc G2 dual-controller array enclosure
to an MSA70 drive enclosure with dual I/O modules requires two (2)
mini-SAS to mini-SAS cables.
Connecting to multiple MSA70 drive enclosures
In this example, connecting an MSA2000fc G2 array enclosure to three
MSA70 drive enclosures requires six (6) mini-SAS to mini-SAS cables.
Connecting to a mixed configuration
The following figure shows a MSA2000fc G2 array controller connected
to a mixed configuration of MSA70 drive enclosures and MSA2000
3.5” 12–drive enclosures. This configuration requires seven (7) mini-SAS
to SAS cables and one (1) mini-SAS to mini-SAS cable. Other mixed
configurations might require different cables.
