Vszerda SFF-8087 to 4×SFF-8482 SAS cable

This 3.3 ft internal cable connects a Mini SAS 36-pin SFF-8087 controller to four SFF-8482 drive connectors. It includes an integrated SATA power lead for the target drives. The assembly uses 30 AWG conductors rated for 6 Gb/s signalling.

Who this suits and who should look elsewhere

Builders attaching up to four SAS or SATA drives to a single SFF-8087 port will find the pinout matches that need. The cable cannot operate with a SAS driver, so hosts requiring driver-level SAS support must use a different interconnect.

Capacity and headroom

Four drive links share the 6 Gb/s host lane, giving each device up to that rate when active alone. Simultaneous heavy traffic on all four ports will contend for the single controller bandwidth. The 3.3 ft length fits typical chassis routing without excess slack.

Questions about this item

What controller connector do I need to plug the SFF-8087 end into?

A SAS controller with an internal SFF-8087 36-pin port is required.

Will this cable work with my existing SATA hard drives using SFF-8482 ports?

Yes, the four SFF-8482 connectors attach directly to SATA disks.

How can I verify the 6 Gbps link is active after connecting the cable?

Check the controller BIOS or OS disk utility for each drive negotiating at 6 Gbps.
