I am buying used
EMC (EMC2) Disk Array (KLE) + 10 x Hard Drive Caddies + 2 x EMC controller board P/N: 118032227, 2 x Power/Cooling Units P/N: 118032322
and would like to connect it to an IBM X3650 with serveraid controller.
What do I need to make them work together.
I am not very experienced with server equipment

since my original post I have found more information. It appears that I bought a sata dae which is part of an emc cx system.
I am not sure which one, but it has twin lccs(some sort of local controller) but it apparently needs a storage processor such as a cx3/5or 700 to control it. The units combine multiple daes of either scsi, sas or sata and manage data , raiding etc between the units. The cx3/5or 700 then interface to the host server. I was hpoping to find an answer that there was a board I could purchase to replace the cx300/5/700 and not outlay $$$ but it seems that its not possible at tis point. :(
