Hi all, I've bought 2 Dell H310 6gbps SAS HBA controlelr with cables, but the cables have the wrong connectors (for me). They have this:
While my drives have this one:
What's the name of those 2 so that I can sell mine and buy new ones? ...or should I just cut the side of these and power supply connectors? π€

π You're right! I was so mad with myself for the wrong purchase that I couldn't think about anything! By the way, thanks!
Looks like OP might need SFF-8482 type connectors?
Yes, 8087 to 8482. Thanks
The cable one is just a regular SATA connector, since SAS HBAs can also control SATA drives (but not vice versa).
I believe the connector you are looking for is called SFF-8482. It is available in backplane and cable versions.
