LaCie 12big Rack Fibre 8 User Manual System Overview page 8 1.2. 12big Rack Fibre Expansion Enclosure The 12big Rack Expansion enclosure is nearly identical to the RAID enclosure except Disk I/O modules replace the RAID Controllers. Expanding the number of disk drives is achieved by connecting one to seven 12big Rack Expansion enclosures to the RAID enclosure. This allows for the expansion of up to a maximum of 96 disk drives per storage solution. Using mini-SAS patch cables, the enclosures are interconnected starting from the 12big Rack Fibre 8 RAID Controller(s) to the first 12big Rack Fibre Disk I/O module(s). Then the remaining Expansion enclosures are connected from one set of Disk I/O modules to the next enclosure's Disk I/O modules. For details on cabling the enclosures refer to 2.5. Cabling the Enclosures and 2.6. Cabling Multiple Enclosures. Fig. 03 - LaCie 12big Rack Fibre 8 Enclosure Rear View (Single Controller Shown)
