XR12 what cables need to connect all 6 NVME drives in direct connection for ZFS?

Hello Is here somebody who can confirm that is possible connect 6 NVME drives on XR12? I need create ZFS pool from 6 drives. My assumption is use onboard S150 what should be able to use. in NON- RAID configuration.

What cables (Part numbers( are needed to have it correct? I assume PWR cable will be same but the NVME cables will be connected from System board? 

  1. SL2_CPU2_PA1 (PCIe cable connector)
  2. SL1_CPU1_PB1 (PCIe cable connector)

and on the Backplane

BP_DST_PA1 (backplane NVMe connector, cable marking BP PA1) SL2_CPU_PB1 (signal connector on the system board, cable marking MB PB1)
BP_DST_PB1 (backplane NVMe connector, cable marking BP PB1) SL2_CPU_PA1 (signal connector on the system board, cable marking MB PA1)

shod be connected only one cable or both?

Any help will be great.
