you need a sas controller and some cables (a variety of breakout cables are available, some only break out to sata connections (not useful) and the ones that go to SAS SFFF 8482 (I may have the number wrong) may get their power from either SATA power connector or molex power connector.
I have a HP H240 that I like as a cheap adapter for 8 drives. There's been a great deals for a inspur? LSI model that supoprts 16.
Maybe 30 bucks for a controller and 10 or 15 bucks for each cable that supports 4x drives. Not super expensive, but if you're on a mega budget it makes the deal worse.
