TTBOMK LSI never made a 60 drive JBOD chassis. Is this actually 3x 24
bay JBOD chassis daisy chained? Did you buy them on Ebay or are these
simply being redeployed? All LSI drive chassis, both JBOD and SAN/DAS
RAID, have been discontinued for quite a while.
First remove and re-seat all SFF8088 cables. Then replace them one by
one until the errors/problems are eliminated. If not test each chassis
expander module individually with only one in the chassis. Test it in
both module bays. Basic process of elimination stuff.
Given you're receiving errors on multiple drives I'd say you have a bad:
1. Cable
2. Backplane
3. Expander module
4. PSU
