How can I raid 6 SCSI drives?


How can I raid 6 SCSI drives?

Most of the SCSI raid cards only have 1 or 2 SCSI ports:

How does it find the other drives?

SCSI Cables support 7 or sometimes 15 drives. You'd connect then to the same cable. There are some controllers that have 2 internal scsi ports which you could raid the first three drives on one cable and the second three drives on the second cable.
