&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;****************&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;The rules are in the VC setup and install guide &lt;A href="http://bizsupport1.austin.hp.com/bc/docs/support/SupportManual/c01732252/c01732252.pdf" target="_blank"&gt;http://bizsupport1.austin.hp.com/bc/docs/support/SupportManual/c01732252/c01732252.pdf&lt;/A&gt; and in the stacking whitepaper &lt;A href="http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bc/docs/support/SupportManual/c02102153/c02102153.pdf" target="_blank"&gt;http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bc/docs/support/SupportManual/c02102153/c02102153.pdf&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;You will not be able to stack these 3 enclosures together (different FlexFabric and VC-FC module configuration).&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;You *&lt;STRONG&gt;might&lt;/STRONG&gt;* be able to stack the last 2 together if and only if the 8Gb VC-FC modules in the second enclosure are the 20-port model, not the 24-port.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;**************&lt;/P&gt;
