SAS is not networking. If you expect to connect 2 systems to another it wont work.

If its just for disks then yes.

It’s not sas. It’s SAS, SATA, and SSD. That’s the reason for a straightforward backplane.

Yes, I have a very similar setup for UNRAID, two separate rack mount cases just for HDDs that link to the head unit over SAS

I really get turned off when people post a picture and walk away with little to no detail. What are you trying to accomplish?

It was late, and took me a while to layer everything in the picture… and less is more.

This looks wrong, why not just use something like a LSI 9200-8e and skip all the swapping.
