Connecting MaxIQ Solid State Drives and other SSDs To connect an Adaptec MaxIQ Solid State Drive or other SSD to your controller, use a directattached connection or backplane connection. If your server does not have a standard 2.5-inch drive tray, you must use a bracket/SLED which enables the SSD to fit properly (not included with MaxIQ SSD kit). Note: For MaxIQ caching applications, Adaptec RAID controllers support Adaptec MaxIQ- branded/Intel X25-E Solid State Drives only. For RAID arrays, you can use any Solid State Drive on the compatibility list, including Adaptec MaxIQ SSDs. (See www.adaptec.com/compatibility for a list of compatible Solid State Drives.)
