Question How to connect SAS HDD to GA Z97X Soc Force motherboard - - - what controller and cable(s) ?

For nostalgic reasons, I wanted to buy and connect a SAS drive. I found a video on YouTube.

I found this adapter on eBay. Unfortunately, for it to work, the SATA socket must support SAS, which is not the case in my motherboard. (although I'm not sure)

I found such a controller https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/18127165...1da8244f874648e090bcdb940532bb7a&bu=430090460 But I don't know if it will work with the Seagate Cheetah 15k rpm drive. I want to ask for tips. What controller do I need to buy and what cables? My system is Win1064. I would also like to know whether such a controller requires drivers to operate.

I want to install two games on the disk, Half-LIfe and RTCW.

I know this is an old solution. I could buy a SATA HDD.

Thanks
