-
- Assuming a smartport card in slot 5 the mapping is as follows:
-
- drive 1 -> S5,D1
- 2 -> S5,D2
- 3 -> S2,D1
- 4 -> S2,D2
-
- If smartport not in slot 5 or a disk card is in slot 2 then ignore lines 3 & 4
- (and change S5 to the appropriate slot #).
- If you are using P8 V2.x.y then drives over 2 (or 4 if in slot 5) will be re-
- mapped into unused slots making it difficult to work out.
