Hi,
I assume that SAS drives don't work in the DNS-323 and there is no way to get them to work even though they are the same connections?
If I tried them would it damage the unit? I have a couple that I intend to sell, but need to check they are blank first, but have no way to do so!
Any suggestions/info welcome.
Thanks

No you cannot use SAS drives with a SATA controller - and SAS & SATA drives do not use the same connector - look a little more closely - you can plug a SATA drive into a SAS connector, but not the other way around.
Look at the area between the data connector and the power connector on a SATA drive - there is a space - now look at the same spot on a SAS drive - there is no space, and this is not just a key, look closely at the back side and you will find a second, smaller set of data connectors - SAS drives have dual data ports, while SATA drives do not.

Oh right, I didn't realise.
