I have a HP MSA2000 which is basically SAS/SATA disk cage normally attached through a SCSI320 cable to a server. Is it possible for me to attach this to a SAS interface somehow ?
 
I don't think you can, not without some sort of active bridge in between anyway. A U320 controller will almost certainly be cheaper.
 
Which model of the MSA2000 do you have? HP's documentation seems to show configurations with SAS, iSCSI, and FibreChannel, but i don't see a U320 model. Can you post a picture of the interface on the back of the device?
 
Same here a lot :) Pretty sure you can't upgrade those. Looks like you can attach them to a fc MSA1500... personally I wouldn't bother.
 
I believe these either have to be connect to a Smart Array controller, or like others have said to an MSA controller.

Does your computer have PCI-X slots?
if so hunt ebay for a Smart Array 6400 controller and U320 cable, hook them together and set up the array thru the 6400
