I'm in the process of planning my NAS while I await arrival of my Jonsbo N2, and I've been looking at the IBM 69Y0650 x3650 M3 8x 2.5" SAS / SATA Backplane as a possible replacement for the 5x3.5" board in the N2. I plan on running an all SSD NAS, so converting 5 x 3.5" bays to 8 x 2.5" bays while keeping the smaller footprint of the N2 is very appealing. This is the proposed replacement board: The rear connectivity comprises a couple of SFF-8087 MiniSAS ports and a proprietary looking 16 pin power socket. I'm reasonably sure the smaller 10 pin socket is just a sideband port. I can get the board and power cable for under £40, and I might still have a couple of SFF-8087 to SATA fan-out cables, so it's a fairly cheap project; but I'm trying to find a pinout for the power cable, so I can mod it for power from an ATX spec PSU. Maybe my google-fu is just weak today. Any chance someone out there has this information?
