12.4.7Power

The drive receives power (+5 volts and +12 volts) through the SAS device connector.

Three +12 volt pins provide power to the drive, 2 short and 1 long. The current return for the +12 volt power supply is through the common ground pins. The supply current and return current must be distributed as evenly as possible among the pins.

Three +5 volt pins provide power to the drive, 2 short and 1 long. The current return for the +5 volt power sup- ply is through the common ground pins. The supply current and return current must be distributed as evenly as possible among the pins.

Current to the drive through the long power pins may be limited by the system to reduce inrush current to the drive during hot plugging.

12.5Signal characteristics

This section describes the electrical signal characteristics of the drive’s input and output signals. See Table 17 for signal type and signal name information.

12.5.1Ready LED Out

The Ready LED Out signal is driven by the drive as indicated in Table 18.
