Symantec 16EB/Promise Technology J630sD 16 bay JBOD w/ 16x3TB SAS HDD (48TB) - $460 OBO shipped

yes, the GA-7PESH2 onboard controller.

It looks like I am going to need these three items to connect the JBOD to my SAS expander card.

Or would this work (x2)?

Someone on discord confirmed this would work for other setups. I can only imagine it would work in this situation as well. It’s also exactly everything I purchased, so once my 8088 to 8087 comes in I can let you know.

Just got it all and set it up on my HP expander. Works great.

Turns out you only need 1 SFF-8088, the second one is for redundancy. Plugging into the single SFF-8088 on the HP Extender is good enough.

I wish I bought one of these!

Sorry to revive old thread. Does anyone that bought this know if other drive caddies are compatible with this? The vtrak caddies are hard to find at a sane price.
