Expander zoning
A SAS expander board allows higher, single-volume hard drive configurations. An integrated expander device expands each sleds hard
drive footprint.
The PowerEdge 6400 enclosure allows four sleds to access a single expander controller at the same time. there are two zoning options
available, they are:
Up to 6 SAS/SATA device of each sled in Split Mode (6+6+6+6)
Up to 12 SAS/SATA device of sled 1 and sled 3 in Zoning Mode (12+12)
