SAS to SATA 6

[ilemon]

I came into some 1TB SAS drives from a retired NAS. Can I modify my sata cable to make this work or is there some adapter to convert it?

This is the drive.

No SAS drives do not work on an SATA controller you will need a SAS controller. Fortunately you can get an 8 port SAS HBA for $100 on eBay.

Look for LSI SAS 2008 controllers
