I have some but they are awfully LONG and I swear of course I gave away my shorter ones. Looking for someone that may have these laying around and willing to ship for cost of shipping plus a few beers or small trade.

Hmm now what do I have laying around that is approx/nominal trade value for those that may be interested in a trade. I have a 9211-8i not doing anything or a mysterious MLX MHZH29-XTR that has 1 port SFP+ 10GbE and 1 port QSFP 40G IB I believe, looks like a MLX CX2 series.

Anyways, any kind soul that would be willing to meet my need would be greatly appreciated else I guess I'll go SAS cable hunting.

OK so my super LONG breakouts are forward and not reverse...worst luck w/ this X10SL7 build. I'll go hunt some shorty reverse 8087 to sata breakout cables to hook to the onboard 2308 LSI ctrl I have in IT mode now. For the time being I have a trusty 9211-8i with 8087-8087 cables driving ZFS capacity pool.

Believe these may be the best I can do, seems like reverse breakout quad sata to 8087/minisas cables are rather hard to procure these days. Guess I shouldn't be too surprised, they've always seemed like a rather odd combo to get the sas ctrl in that format on the mobo to me...never liked it but meh.
