Hi guys,

I bought a NOROCO 4220 which reguires minisas connections to the backpanels. As I am planing to use the MB SATA port and connect the backpanels, I need a reverse SATA to minisas cables not minisas to to sata as I do have those cables and they don't work.

Can anyone point me to a store where I can find the cables needed ? or is there a PCI-Express card(NOT RAID CARD) to have the minisas connectors instead of me using the sata port on the MB ? This is for a home server runing Asus Z8PE-D18 board.


Thank you

You have a 4220, not 4020 then. Reverse cables aren't hard to find. Newegg carries them. Plenty of HBAs that have mini-SAS as well. Supermicro makes a cheap one. Check newegg once again.
 
I need a card with 6 mini-sas cheap one that can attach to my MB. I don't want raid card as I am planing to use ZFS and OpenSolaris.

Thanks
 
24 port and cheap don't go together. Get yourself a few of those Supermicro HBAs instead.
