    EMC KTN-STL3 15 bay chassis

    Yes, I have been using them in a mixed configuration of SAS and SATA drives on the bottom controller only with no problems. (I actually just added my third shelf to my system :) (Chia farm.. (hopefully that doesn't draw any rebuke :)) It is a note that you have to have both power supplies...

    EMC KTN-STL3 15 bay chassis

    So as an additional note. The SATA drives only have one port on them, and the SAS drives have two ports on them. The difference in the connectors appears to be that the SATA connector has a physical gap between the power and (primary) data plugs, but the SAS drives do not. And if you look at...
