Hi Guys,

I have a simple quetion. I have a hgst S846E200M1 drive with micro sas interface and a ibm5110 controller. Can I use a micro sata to sata adapter to connent this drive to the controller with a sas cable or a micro sas connector is not compatible with micro sata adapters?

I'm not 100% sure but it sounds like you need the SFF-8482 cables to SFF-8087. This might be it.

"PC Pitstop cables"
It's a micro sas (SFF-8486) on the drive side not a mini sas (SFF-8087) like on the controller side... I didn't
found a cable with SFF-8486 ob the drive side and with SFF-8087 on the controller side...
