HI,
I have a large lot of 4-8 year old random SAS HDD's and SSD's. (not SATA drives)
I need a way to test, wipe and reformat these drives from a regular PC (win 10)
I know I need some kind of adapter card.
I got some of these cables

But they do not work as most PC motherboards to not support SAS drives I discovered. (if you know of a particular cheap MB model that dose, please post it)
So I'm looking for some help to find a least expensive solution that includes data and power for the drives, that a regular PC can deal with.
I am not looking for speed or making a RAID or anything fancy. I just want to test and wipe these drives.
I do not have any access to any type of server hardware.
Any suggestions would be most welcome.
Thanks
