You mean the multilane connectors? Yeah, those are sweet. A friend of
mine has just used those cables with multilane drive cages to make some
really "fat" 12 drive arrays using Seagate 400gig SATA drives. They
look a bit like the old high density external SCSI connectors (like the
old Buslogic/Mylex boards used to have "back in the day").
