Re: Is there a performance advantage of adding a second parity set?

Looking at that...
What I currently have is 3 cables coming off the card. One goes to the
single on top left, one to the dual on bottom right and one to the single
on bottom right. Top right is empty.

I have an extra single. I tried putting in the repeater into top right
and running a cable from the bottom left dual. That doesn't work.

I am hearing that one shouldn't cross from bottom to top with short cable
to go from one repeater to another.

On another frame I have a 5787 and apparently it doesn't matter if the
dual is on the left, or the right because on it the top left is a dual
connected to the single on the top right and the bottom right is a dual
connected to the single on the bottom left.

So, to start out simple with my existing configuration, can I disconnect
one cable from the card and instead of running that to the single on the
bottom right, instead run the jumper from the dual on the bottom right to
the single on the bottom left? If I do this will there be any negative
ramifications, like the one attempt? Can I try it and see if it's
reversable if it doesn't work?
Because, if this works, then the next step would be to take the cable that
came from the card to the single on the bottom right and, instead, run it
to the single on the top right.
Final goal would be:
Cable on card going to dual in bottom left to single in bottom right.
Cable on card going to single in top left.
Cable on card going to single in top right.
