Re: How to order Power Server Parts?

Taking into account that SAS is a standard, if you say what
application you need it for, you may get the same cable without the
IBM FRU...
For example a 4 lane controller to expansion box or a 4 lane to
external tape cable...

Best Regards,

Thanks for the reply, Mark. I've already searched Google, which appears to have some "awareness" of the part, but when you try drilling down, everything that has come up for me so far has been a "false positive", so to speak. You end up at a site that offers various cable options, but not the one you're looking for.

Hi, Nathan:

Just do a google search for "44V5161" (without quotes) ... you will find
many sites offering these for sale. :-)

Also available on e-bay (for a better price than elsewhere). ;-)

HTH,

Mark S. Waterbury

Thanks for the reply, Matt. I've already looked on Amazon and Newegg, but without success.

I just tried calling 1-888-SHOP-IBM, but Bridgette indicated that the part number I provided (44V4161) was not available, nor were substitutes indicated.

Newegg.com, even amazon.com sells external SAS cables.

I'm interested in ordering an external SAS cable. Do I need to trouble our IBM BP about something that small? Are other sources available? On the Internet?
