Installing P840 RAID Controller into DL380 Gen9 Servers

[MisterLee93]

Hello,

I currently have a DL380 Gen9 24-Bay SFF and a DL380 Gen9 12-Bay LFF. I wish to install an HPE Smart Array P840 4GB FBWC 12Gb/s RAID card in each server, but I'm a little confused on which cables I need to connect to the backplanes.

Do I just need one of these cable kits for each server, or will the cabling be different due to the different form factors?

I appreciate the feedback!

I understand the parts are compatible, my confusion comes from if I just need the P840/440 SAS cable kit 783007-B21 or do I also need the respective
