3 Storage enclosure firmware versions This section provides information about firmware versions for MD1400 and MD1420 enclosure firmware. MD1400 and MD1420 storage enclosures have two Enclosure Management Modules (EMMs). You must have both EMMs at the same firmware level and upgrade each EMM individually. EMMs do not automatically synchronize firmware versions. Table 4. MD1400 and MD1420 enclosure firmware Firmware version Release date Firmware version 1.
4 Supported adapters and controllers This section lists the adapters and controllers that have been tested for use with MD1400 and MD1420 storage enclosures.

7 Supported cabling configurations You can cable MD1400 or MD1420 enclosures to host systems and to more storage enclosures in three different configurations: ● Single-port configuration ● Redundant configuration ● Multi-chain configuration NOTE: Clustering is not supported on MD1400 and M1420 enclosures. Only 0.5 m, 2 m, and 4 m mini-SAS HD cables are supported.
Single-port configuration Single-port configuration supports up to four enclosures. The enclosures are daisy-chained with one of the enclosures connected to a single port on the controller card. Figure 1.
Redundant configuration In Redundant configuration, the enclosures are daisy-chained with one of the enclosures connected to both the ports on the controller card. Figure 2.
Multi-chain configuration Multi-chain configuration supports up to eight enclosures. The first four enclosures are daisy-chained with one of the enclosures connected to a single port on the controller card. The second four enclosures are daisy- chained with one of the enclosures connected to the second port on the controller card Figure 3.
