PCI Express* Slot (3.3 V) AF003350 Figure 2. Installing the Intel® RAID Controller RS2WC040 5. For the four drives (ports 0 - 3), connect one 4-port combined end of an internal cable to the right connector (see letter "A" in Figure 3). Connect the other end of the cables to SATA drives or to the ports on a SATA or SAS backplane (see letter "C" in Figure 3). To prevent throughput problems: ✧ Use the cables provided or use the shortest possible cable. ✧ Do not use cables longer than one meter. ✧ Decrease the maximum length by one foot if you are using a backplane. ✧ Do not use cross-over cables. ✧ Only connect to a SATA drive, SAS or SATA backplane, or an expander device. ✧ Route the cables carefully. ✧ Check that the controller and cables are all properly attached.
