Q50011705 - Does ARC-4038 support an external SAS tape drive to the SFF-8088 expansion port?


You can connect a tape device after ARC-4038, but you must make sure your host do support tape device after expanders. The SFF-8088 port is default configured as JBOD expansion port. Some HBA needs to set the external port as SES internal slot for SAS tape drive. ARC-4038 firmware supports the “con” command to set expander external ports from JBOD expansion port to SES internal slot.
