Figure 1. Supported Hardware Configuration
Figure 2. Max Configuration on a Single PERC 5/E or PERC 6/E Controller (both ports connected)
The PERC 6/E adapter can detect and use redundant paths to drives contained in an MD1000 enclosure. With
redundant paths, if one path fails, another path can be used to communicate between the controller and the
hard drive.
NOTE: Redundant Path connectivity is not supported on PERC 5/E
