I have purchased several of these super servers and am in the process of purchasing 50 more. I have a problem with the external SCSI port. Actually the problem is with size of the cutout in the back panel. The cables I've tries won't fit in the small opening to reach the SCSI connector on the motherboard. The most recent cables tried are HP part number C2362B rev.C which comes with their LTO drive and IBM part number 19P0279 which comes with their LTO drive. I've also tried Belkin cables. Do you have a replacement back plate to address this problem? Do you have a cable or cable supplier which will fit?
Please contact our RMA department RMA@supermicro.com or call 408-503-8080 and order our cable which does fit correctly, the part number is CBL-045.
