* Prior to installing power adapter card (ECP01), please calculate your computer's total power consumption to determine if you have enough power to support this card. You should set aside
60W from the power supply to TS421S or 120W from the power supply to TS821S.
* Make sure your computer case has enough expansion slots available for used, TS421S will occupy two slots. TS821S will occupy three slots.
* Your system must have SAS controller if you want to use SAS HDD.
* Hard drive capacity and RAID support is dependent on SAS or SATA controller used.
