I've tried the following four cables: 1. "CBL-SFF8087OCR-05M" from http://store.3ware.com <http://store.3ware.com/status.cfm?confirmation=200712172508AMC821> 2. "2136476-XXXXMM" from www.techcable.com 3. iSAS-7P73/.5m from http://www.cs-electronics.com/ 4. *"4 SATA Discrete to SFF-8087 Reverse Breakout" from *http://tekramonline.com Using the numbers assigned above: Fits AOC-SAT2-MV8 miniSAS Connector Sheathing ----------------- ----------------- --------- 1 Yes well made None 2 Yes ok None 3 Yes hard to disconnect 1/2 way 4 No ok 1/2 way I thought #3 was going to be my favorite, but it was nearly impossible to get off the first time, after which I crimped the prongs a bit and then it worked better, but the bad experience discourages me from ordering more of them In the end, I decided to go with #1. But since the sprawl of cables is unsightly. I plan to sheath them myself Kent _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
