Hello,
Bought a spare super cheap used 3TB drive a year ago, and just figured out it’s not a SATA but a SAS drive.
How fucked am I? What can I do more than using it as a paperweight?
Cheers!

That’s exactly what I’d like to find, but you cannot, it seems, connect a SAS disk to a SATA slot on the mobo, only the other way around, with this adapter.
The comments also seems to say exactly that (you have to put 4 or 5 stars to comment, so that’s a useless measure, gotta read those translated comments).
you can, if you read my edited post, as long as the SATA logo is present on the label of the sas drive
as mentioned in the description of the product
Thank you!
Mine is suspiciously looking like yours 😁 but Dell, and without the sticker…
Is it just a Dell rebranded Seagate? I mean Dell doesn’t make drives right? And the serial takes me right to segate drives who are compatible s-ata.
Guess I’ll gamble a couple of € to see 😁
