How to Install RAIDage JAGE9BT8HDBKDE-SEA

  • Plan your RAID layout and identify the drives you will install. The enclosure is trayless, so you can insert SAS/SATA drives directly into available bays without a drive tray framework.
  • Power down your host system and the enclosure before making any connections. Ensure you have a compatible power supply and that the enclosure is placed in a well-ventilated area to maximize cooling efficiency.
  • Insert SAS/SATA drives into the eight bays. Verify drive compatibility with your SAS/SATA controller and confirm that each drive is seated securely in its bay for reliable communication.
  • Connect the enclosure to your server, workstation, or storage controller using the Mini-SAS HD (SFF-8644) cable. Ensure the cable is firmly seated at both ends to establish a solid, high-speed connection.
  • Power on the enclosure and the host system. Use your server management or RAID controller software to initialize the drives and configure the desired RAID array across the eight bays. Monitor drive health indicators and ensure the firmware on the enclosure and drives is up to date for optimal performance.
