So I occidentally purchased a fibre channel HDD from Ebay (i had no idea what FC was, i assumed it was SATA or IDE) and i was wondering if there is anyway i can attach my hard drive to my desktop to use as a normal had drive?
I received 2 because one was faulty and now i just realised there is no easy way to convert FC to SATA. I looked up this question and it brought me to a segate guide (http://knowledge.seagate.com/articles/en_US/FAQ/194055en?language=en-us)
which was hard to follow and i have a Hitachi drive, so i was confused to as if this would work .
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
If anyone is wondering what model brand etc here is where i bought it from (http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/222463685896)
