Changing the Phy Link Speed
You can change the link speed between the controller and an expander or between the controller and a drive that is directly connected to the controller. Typically, the phy link speed is set to Auto. If desired for compatibility, troubleshooting or performance analysis, you can specify a specific link speed (1.5 or 3.0 Gbps).
To change the phy link speed in 3DM 2

1 | On the Controller Phy Summary page, identify the phy device for which you wish to change the link speed. Direct-attached drives are identified by their VPort ID.

2 | In the Link Control drop-down menu, select the desired speed: 3 Gbps, 1.5 Gbps, or Auto.

The link speed is now reset.
