I would like to add a Drive Caddy using the Front 5 1/4 bay. This caddy would hold both a 3.5 and 2.5 inch drive which will store my hourly backups of the PERC H700 drives.

Please give me the web site to find these parts as searching accessories and parts under my service tag comes up with nothing.
Also Is that SATA_A port a SFF-8087 port?
Thanks for your help

SATA_A is indeed an 8087 port and a Mini_SAS connector with 4 Sata's will work fine
Hey Buddy thank you for clarifying about SATA_A port, I was wondering HDD connected to that port can get direct access to Freenas instead of going through some RAID,

Hi Colakang,
the T320 supports SATA 3(6Gb/s) with using a Raid Controller.
But the onboard Raid Controller S110 could handle only 3Gb/s
