I've picked up a T310 server off of ebay and wish to upgrade from Perc 6 and get a H700 card so i can take advantage of higher capacity drives.  So looking at the H700 card it shows 2 physical connections.  Does this really mean I can connect only 2 HDDs to the H700 card?

Reading up here: https://www.dell.com/downloads/global/products/pvaul/en/dell-perc-h700-h800-transition-guide.pdf shows it has 2 internal connectors and 8(2x4) ports/channels.

Im mean, do i need to pick up some sort of Y splitter cable or something?

Im totally lost here.  How many physically sata drives can i connect to this card?

 

 

EDIT:  AHHHHH! I think if i picked up 2 of these cables that would allow 4 drives, right?
